Cast Iron Frying Pans With Wooden Handle Skillet Pan

How to Use Enameled Cast Iron Pots

1 Understand how enameled cookware works. It heats slowly and cools slowly. The big advantage is that it holds an even heat during cooking and requires little stirring.

2 Use enameled cookware on any kind of stovetop. You also can use it in the oven.

3 Preheat the cookware on a low heat for stovetop use. This allows the cooking surface of the pot or pan to increase to cooking temperature. Then raise the heat to the desired level.

4 Keep the cookware clean, and it can last for generations. Use detergent and a sponge. Use a plastic scrubber for the tough stuff. Dry thoroughly.

5 Cool the enameled cookware before cleaning. Letting it return to room temperature helps prevent warping.

6 Protect the enameled surface by avoiding breaks and scratches. Use wooden or plastic utensils. Place a small amount of cooking oil on places that have chipped so they don't rust.

How to 'Season' Cast Iron Cookware

Seasoning is the process of allowing oil to be absorbed into the iron, creating a non-stick, rustproof finish. Here's how to do it:

1. Wash with hot, soapy water and a stiff brush. Rinse and dry completely.
2. Oil the cookware (inside and out) with MELTED solid vegetable shortening.
3. Turn upside down on the top rack of a 350°F pre-heated oven.
4. Put aluminum foil on the bottom rack to catch any excess drippings.
5. Bake the cookware for one hour at 350°F.
6. Let the cookware cool slowly in the oven.
7. Store, uncovered, in a dry place when cooled.

· Use normal liquid detergent and a sponge.

· Completely dry pan before putting away. Do not put it away still damp.

Enameled Cast Iron Use 

· For best results, use low to medium heat.

· Pre-heat pan for 2-3 minutes before adding oil or liquid.

· Use Plastic, wood or nylon utensils only. Metal utensils may damage the enamel.

· ALWAYS use a pot holder or glove when using your pan, the handles will be very hot.

· Do not put hot pan directly on counter tops or unprotected surfaces.

· The pan may chip or break if it is dropped against a hard surface.

· You may use any cast iron cookware in the oven (up to 500° F) and on the stovetop.

· Do not put hot pan directly into cold water or fridge, allow the pan to cool down first to avoid warping.
