Lodge Cast Iron Dual Handle Pan 26cm

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:

Easy steps to ensure your cookware stays clean and increasingly seasoned:

• Allow cookware to cool enough to handle, but still quite warm
• Hand wash with hot water and salt or mild soap
• Use a towel to dry thoroughly
• Rub a thin layer of oil inside the cookware as well as on the rim (Palm, Flaxseed, Coconut, Canola or other)
• Place on a stove (or in an oven) and heat up until lightly smoking
• Turn off the heat. Carefully use a paper towel to wipe off excess oil- This will avoid a sticky surface
• Once completely cool, store in a cool, dry place

How to restore cast iron:

• If there is rust or gunk, first scrub the whole cookware with a steel wool sponge
• Using a scouring pad, wash with soap & hot water
• Use a towel to dry thoroughly (important!)
• Place on a hot stove (or in an oven) to completely evaporate any excess moisture
• Rub a thin layer of oil all over the cookware, inside & outside (Palm, Flaxseed, Coconut, Canola or other)
• Once the oil is rubbed in thoroughly, use a clean paper towel to wipe off excess oil (this avoids stickiness)
• Place cookware in an oven at 450° to 500° and bake for 1 hour
• Depending on the type of oil you use, it can get quite smokey
• Allow to cool completely & store in cool, dry place

For ceramic glass stove tops, do not shuffle the pan while on the glass top and it will scratch the surface.
