About Cast Iron
Cast iron cookware has been around for centuries and is still being manufactured today, a testament to its tried and true performance. Cast iron conducts heat evenly and will last a lifetime if cared for properly. It is a natural non-stick surface if your pan if seasoned well. There are many ways to "season" or "cure" your cast iron product. Here is one way we've found that works well for bringing cast iron back after years of neglect.
Cast Iron Restoration:
- Brush off any rust with steel wool - coarse or fine grade, you decide. Rinse item under hot water.
- Put item upside down on newspaper and let dry.
- Once dry, wipe all over with paper towel containing one tablespoon of vegetable oil. Use more oil if needed.
- Preheat oven to 325 F.
- Put the item and the newspaper in the oven for 30 minutes right side up.
- Remove from oven and wipe again with 1 tablespoon of oil on paper towel.
- Leave item on stove top to dry.
- If desired, you can keep rubbing item until it's "dry". Note: It will always have an "oiled" appearance.
Just remember to keep your cast iron seasoned as needed. Clean it as usual, and then heat it up with a bit of oil on the stove and wipe all over with a paper towel. Happy Seasoning!
