I COOK like a MAN. With a CAST IRON SKILLET. And then I DRY IT GENTLY with a CLOTH. And ANOINT IT'S FACE LIGHTLY WITH OILS. And then put it in its SPECIAL AREA like a LITTLE PRINCE.

    Are we doing cast iron discourse? I wash my cast iron like all my other pots and pans, with soap and a scrubby dish sponge until it is clean and not oily. When necessary I soak it in the sink or use steel wool. When I bake bread I let the skillet preheat at the bottom of the oven and then dump in a cup of boiling water as I put the loaf in. The seasoning is fine. Cast iron is meant to be abused; if you baby it you're wasting your time.

      This is honestly why I like cast iron, i need the things I use to stand a beating. I dont like having to be gentle with nonstick finishes only to find scratches on the finish anyway
