Every time that's posted, why don't people just scratch the poo poo out of a cooking top? That's what it's for, almost always a rental, and it's not as if you are keying it.

Drifter posted:edit: depending on the pans, you may need to strip the factory season off. Factory seasoning can be stripped with warm soapy water and a bristle brush, otherwise you need to bust out steel wool or sandpaper or electrolysis.

Ra-amun posted:So is good seasoning important for cooking shakshuka in cast iron? Every cookbook and image online usually showcases it cooked in cast iron pans. I, on the other hand, can't simmer anything for too long in my pan without it ending up tasting metallic and ruining the dish. I can fry potatoes and scramble eggs just fine, its just anything involving decent amounts of liquids tastes like an iron supplement before its even done cooking. I also don't really take care of my pans as well, I'll just use paper towel and some water to wipe things out. A bit of salt if that fails, then a thin layer of oil brought up to smoking on occasion. Mine only goes white/grayish if I have the burner on high and have preheated my pan for steaks in the oven, going gray from just drying off is probably not good.

Just use it, it's a new pan. The stickiness will go away after you build more seasoning (the extra oil won't stick!) There's no reason to use a moist cloth wiping out the oil, I use a paper towel to spread the oil in my pan before an oven nap.

Eh I'd just start with a new pan. You could roast or use it on the grill

It'd be better? You should either use flax or a neutral oil though.

My best seasoned pan has had grease fire on top of a too hot camp fire and came out better for it. You'd kill your seasoning either purposefully or by being super negligent and letting it heat up to 800+ degrees for a good period of time on the burner.

efb flax is good too, but you'll probably find them in the foo-foo italian section where the balsamic is at as well (referencing Giant eagle). Other than the initial seasoning, the type of oil doesn't really matter and imo the initial is only important to give you marginally more leeway to not gently caress it up in the first week.

Food grade flax does not need to be refrigerated, linseed does.

I'm not sure how well that large of a hunk of iron would cool, but no, the milling would just be potentially smoother than a sand or other mold. You'd also be able to get a few more pans out of 8 cubic feet.

You can also get some shortening, a paper towel and season it on the stovepipe.

bread is better raw as 500-550 degree ovens are not friendly to enamel. Enamel is better for your stews, get both. The lodge combo cooker is a godsend for bread.

Depends on what you use it for. Lot of bread making? The Le Crueset will be worth it. Just braises? doesn't matter. Their enamel is generally better quality as well as the lid handles.

If it's like my glass top you're getting seasoning on the bottom of the pan from incidental oil splatter. Lol rubber mallet on cast iron.

Cast iron and induction is sorta a hard thing for constant searing in my experience and I've had similar results. When you get the cast iron up to > 600 degrees or w/e, which you were with the initial steaks, induction hobs turn off. The cast iron holds the heat well enough that the hob just won't turn back on. Heat doesn't go through cast iron very well so it could have been insulated, just likely not by the fond. I've been semi-successful avoiding this issue by using a poo poo-ton of oil.

I think people are too worried about it. Sometimes it'll just look spotty after a food. Keep it going unless it rusts imho. The goon with the non cleaning roommate it's no different then leaving poo poo in any pan really.

What's your method? Get some oil on the pan, cold is fine, then try like hell to scrub it out. Oven it at 500 for an hour. Repeat that a few times. You could also just do crisco on the stovetop instead of getting fancy with oils and repeatedly crisco > wipe it the hell out > burner to smoke > cool > repeat
|

# ¿ Oct 22, 2020 23:42 |
Sure it's rust? Could be food bits like you'd see in the spoon zone. I'd try and sear more things in it to get that splatter and poo poo.

Are you getting smoke? Serious eats may have you using thr wrong oil for just 220c, their site makes my eyes bleed now. Shortening would probably work well.
