Who would have thought watching a video on seasoning cast iron could be so much fun. Great job, I enjoyed your sense of humor and the seasoning tips were invaluable. 👍👍

[@BigPeter1313]

I have some of my Grandmother's cast Erie PA iron pans and I can still see my reflection in them!! They're over 100 years old! Still nothing sticks to them and they've never seen a drop of soap, just hot water, dry wipe, and a coat of oil. I'll hand them down eventually to become 4th generation cookware.

[@LillyR539]

Wow your lucky to have those enjoy.

[@hiddenleaf414]

After you put the last coat of oil on do you reheat it up?

[@BigPeter1313]

@@hiddenleaf414 After the final oven coat I allow the cast iron to cool down in the oven overnight and then put a thin coating of oil on.

[@aaronthenorm5400]

Ridding myself of all the tethlon coated pans has been a feel good moment. And this easy as rain vid to season my new cast iron was awesome; thanks!

[@XC-Z-cv8qw]

Good choice. Teflon and any other "non-stick" have forever chemicals that increase the risk of cancer and other illnesses and diseases such as metabolic disorders and hormone disruptions.

[@shannoncombs3036]

So as a restoration business I have a couple of things that are not correct about your information. Washing the skillet when you first get it does NOT remove the factory seasoning. It only removes dirt and oils that may be on the iron from the factory. It is good to wash it when you first get it though. Second modern dish soap will NOT harm your seasoning what so ever. Soap can be use anytime you feel you need to wash it. Old days long ago soaps had lye in them. Lye will remove organic material. Seasoning is organic material that is carbonized on the iron. And as for the use of foil in the oven....its NOT need at all. That was used to catch excessive oil from dripping in the oven from the skillet. If you wipe the skillet down really good before its put in the oven it will not drip. If it does you did not wipe it down period. The rest of the information in the video is good and well done. So here are the taka ways.... You can use modern soap anytime you want. It doesn't remove seasoning. Foil is not needed in the oven. And follow up session is recommended once you see the food starting to stick more than usual.

Fake news

[@jonathanoliver1862]

Ya but soap soaks into cast iron and ruins it favor and taste so I don't know were you think you know anything but you don't stop misinforming people dish soap soaks right in to cast iron I not stupid like the rest of America so ya do not use dish soap on cast iron of any kind it will runin your skillet no matter what dish soap you use it will runin that skillet forever so stop eating your time believeing all this trash

[@jonathanoliver1862]

No put soap on your cast iron I taught that as lil kid I sure it hasn't changed suddenly but I the southern hill of Indiana and white middle class and I tell you what I never in my whole life ever put dish soap on cast iron I bet this guy had to buy two to just make this video cuz I am sure he runined it cuz the first shop in the video is him wash a cast iron pan with soap whish If I remember soap runins a cast iron pan no matter what it will there nothing about this trash that is useful it not true so don't wast your money effort and time on this misleading video of some kind that think he owe a restoration business so ya lye to another stupid but you ain't fooling me

[@sambiden6020]

Personally, I take my oven outside and do this. Otherwise too much oil for the kitchen. I have done this on several cast iron pans and have never been disappointed. I clean my up a little more than these guys do as most cast iron pans have some blemishes that could use some special care.

[@jonathanoliver1862]

It not thale way you should cc lean a cast iron pan do not use soap on cast iron it soak into the pan and runin it taste

[@LillyR539]

No... They are worth it .

[@matteagle8206]

Cast iron is far superior to any other pan material, sears like no other, easily cook from stovetop, fire, BBQ, oven etc, sleans easy, and everytime you cook with oil it just adds to the seasoning layer, wash it as normal, the only downside of cast iron is heat drying it and making sure you throw a small amount of oil on the skillet before storage, there's a reason why cast iron skillets last for a lifetime and are handed down generation to generation

[@TheKingOfInappropriateComments]

@@matteagle8206 I don't disagree with most of that but how do you really know you're getting it clean when it's all black and you can't see what's baked on and not dishwasher safe.

[@matteagle8206]

@@TheKingOfInappropriateComments dish soap, and if things are stuck in that bad I use a chainmail scrubber for cast iron, also if I notice things are really sticking I'll deglaze with wine or something similar

How long to cool down in between seasonings?

[@JCRascal14]

I was applying this video to a grill / stovetop conversion piece I have that's cast iron. When wiping down with paper towels it's tearing them apart leaving tiny lint like paper everywhere. Do you use high quality H20 coach- err high quality paper towels I mean or something?

[@StatUpBox]

you can wet with oil the paper towel before applying, to see if that helps. if small tiny particles of paper left, they may burn in the heating process. if they are big, you can probably switch to a clean or new rag .

[@DaleStrickland]

You can use coffee filters as well, less lint

[@altonweaver7757]

How soon after seasoning can I use my cast iron skillet?

[@marygregus3755]

[@cookinwithmarysue4014]

the outside of my new cast iron set is RED, i guess its a coated enamel paint over the cast iron..so i guess i wont need to coat the outside with oil? also, can i just place aluminum foil tightly over the top of the skillet ,then turn it upside down ? please answer soon if possible

[@rizkyaskari2554]

Can i use a palm oil for seasoning?

[@yowyow1263]

Should i rinse it after it cools down?

[@haroldjewell4890]

❤

[@stevegorr4262]

If you want to save 3 minutes, so long as you understand "New cast iron pans rust too." That's metallurgy 101. Clean it with soap and water, damp dry, use high temp cooking oil and let it sit for a day. Bake the pan slightly hotter than your cooking range but don't burn it. Bring it up to 425 degrees for an hour, turn off the stove/ oven and once cooled repeat the process at least one more time before using new skillet. Cast Iron rust quickly do not let it sit in water ever. Wash and dry by hand ONLY!

[@chrisvdmeer]

Do you let it cool down fully in between?

[@Paradys8]

Can it be seasoned with Coconut oil or olive oil please?

So, after I've used it, do I wash it or just wipe it out. If I wash it, do I have to season it again before using?
