How to Clean, Season & Cook on Cast Iron

Many people wonder how to clean cast iron pans, how to take care of cast iron cookware, and of course how to cook with cast iron. People tend to shy away from cast iron because of preconceived notions that it’s an impossible material to work with… hopefully this video helps dispel some of those myths.

I accidentally left an important part of the video out… If you’re scared that you might “chip off” any seasoning, don’t be. Unless you’re deliberately Michael Meyers-ing the pan by chiseling at it with a metal object or knife, the seasoning shouldn’t come off. Though I would refrain from using metal scoring pads or steel wool for daily cleaning. They can actually scrape seasoning off. Those flakes that you sometimes might see when cleaning are more likely bits of old carbonized food and not your pans seasoning. Cook awn! 🤘🏻Adam
