How to Refinish a Cast Iron Pan and Keep it in Good Condition

Cast iron pans come pre-seasoned from the factory. They have a coating of oil baked on to them for protection of the surface and to make them non-stick. As the pan is being used the protective coating (seasoning) can wear off. Especially if it is not cared for correctly.

I only use my Lodge combo cooker for breadmaking purposes which does not damage it that much. But it gets abused from time to time especially when I use the pan as a steam generator. Sometimes I pre-heat it with the oven and when the bread gets placed inside, I pour a cup of boiling water in the pan to create a cloud of steam. While being an extremely effective method for producing steam it does wear off the seasoning and makes it more susceptible to rusting. Washing and handling can also cause some wear on the finish. If the pan is not dried well or if it is placed on a wet surface, it may rust.
