love my cast iron skillet!
siftbotsays...Boosting this quality contribution up in the Hot Listing - declared quality by ChaosEngine.
Sylvester_Inksays...But don't bother with flaxseed oil. It's popular now because it makes the skillet look nice and black and shiny, but many people have found that the seasoning tends to crack and flake off on the long term. Canola oil is fine, as it has a high smoke point (resulting in stronger bonds) and it's easy to acquire. (Other, saturated fats like Crisco are well-liked for their ease of use.)
newtboysays...Ok...I have a hard time taking cooking tips from someone that leaves the tops on their carrots.
I know I do it wrong, but I scrub mine down with steel wool before cooking, to bare metal, then heat it with oil. Stuff doesn't stick, and my iron levels are nice and high.
