The podcast alternates from illuminating deep dives into food and lib politics. The lib politics are at least nominally not bigoted even as he tries to reassure his conservative audience, but for a dude who is so insistent on needing to do research to talk about things on a large platform like his own he just loves to mouth off about politics he is just factually fucking wrong about. He has very weak support for Palestine, for example, which is surprising given his politics, but refers to the conflict as thousands of yeats old because he never actually did any research. That's when he's not just blindly cheering for capitalism because he got his.
Nobody should have to listen to the half baked political takes of an Italian American.
If your seasoning is so thin it can't handle some steel wool or making a tomato sauce, you're doing yourself a favor by exposing the weak points so you can reseason it.
When there's a gap in the seasoning, I mainly use food-grade linseed oil, it's got a very low smoke point so it's easier to put on a very thick layer of seasoning.
Ok, so I think I get it now. Not only the OP but also the comments have to contain the word 'main'. I was wondering what the hell everyone did wrong here, haha.
It's uneven heat that fucks cast iron up. You can leave it in hot coals until it gets red hot and it'll be fine if it cools slowly.
The main way to remove seasoning is to leave it in the oven and run the self-clean cycle or bury it in a campfire pit's hot coals.
It won't melt until 2000 F+, but you get it to 500+, then throw water on it, there's a decent chance it'll crack.
Real cast iron mains know about the buffed soap meta and will adjust accordingly. Fake cast iron heads clean it with cold water and a prayer because they haven't read strategy guides since 1590.
Mainly, I’m glad you included mainly. The comments section is a graveyard. It had some good stuff in there.
The main takeaway was use soap with lye and apply heat unevenly, preferably through a time-saving device such as a dishwasher.
I thought the main stream opinion was not letting it oxidise
Absolutely ridiculous! The main reason to buy one of these stupid things is so that you never have to wash it!
Sometimes you do have to wash it. For example, a drunken roommate pissed in the sink after I was done scrubbing it with mainly lye based soap. I’d have to wash it then.
Just after finishing the de-seasoning process.

"soap is bad for cast iron" is and has always been a myth. if soap strips the seasoning from your cast iron you didn't properly season it to begin with
It’s always been a myth? The lye thing isn’t true? The main soap brand generic around here has some lie. Is it not an issue at all?
soap made from lye mainly won't have unreacted lye left in the soap, but even a little bit won't significantly damage the seasoning unless you leave it for long periods of time
Mainly I think comrades posting here should read the comm sidebar. I know I didn't and was confused at first.
My main Comrade in Christ, half the fun of posting here is because they don't read the sidebar.
A recent acquaintance might as well have a small table with incense and devotionals to store his pan the he goes on about it’s seasoning.
Two types of cast iron mains I guess lol
What the hell is up with people not cleaning their cast iron pans? That's not seasoning, that's using a dirty utensil. If anyone does this I do not understand or like you
Main
yeah, it's not that you're not supposed to clean it, it's that you're supposed to clean it in a very specific way to maintain the accumulated seasoning, but people are lazy so they just say "don't clean it!"
also main.
According to a random wiki that is not the the main wiki:
Culinarians preside over the world of cuisine, preparing every known consumable in Eorzea. Armed with a cornucopia of ingredients from across the realm, and versed in methods from the far corners of Hydaelyn, these master chefs help adventurers maintain their strength on the battlefield. Of all the city-states of Eorzea, Limsa Lominsa boasts the richest culinary tradition, a product of its proximity to fertile lands and plentiful seas, and its standing as the realm's foremost trading port.
ShowI think people mainly go for a Home Cook build with cast iron, most people that go the full chef prestige class are using other pans like stainless steel, copper, or some other pan that requires feats to wield. I've seen some pretty good baker builds that use cast iron, the corn bread they make is particularly good.
Personally I'm using a 10" cast iron pan while working on my home cook levels with no plans to take any chef levels, though I have dabbled in baking
