anything that's untreated steel or iron needs to be seasoned. basically you oil it and run it hot enough that the oil polymerizes and makes a sort of nonstick surface. My preferred method for cast iron is to cook up a bunch of bacon in it (this is sacrificial if the pan isnt already seasoned - do not eat), then use a paper towel to rub the bacon fat all over the inside and outside, and oven it for an hour or so. For the wok, I use flaxseed oil - coat inside and out, place upside down in oven, same thing.

but doesnt thorough cleaning just get rid of that anyway?

here's how i clean my cast iron

after i cook, i do a quick wipe out of the pan. if your seasoning is good, this will get 99% of stuff out. then i put it on high for about 5 mins until its just ripping hot. then i pour in a cup of water which will insta boil and lift off anything that got caked or stuck on. pour that out, dump in a handful of salt, scrub for 30s with a wadded up paper towel, dump that out. done

Fire purifies all

i got a le creuset one as a gift and have done absolutely nothing special for it other than not putting it in the dishwasher and it still works great.

le creuset is special, its ceramic coated (unless you somehow got ahold of raw iron le creuset?) . it can be treated like any other boring cookware.

it's very good stuff but to me it's like rolex, its super tacky to buy it for yourself but its the perfect wedding/promotion gift. i know tori has a full stack of it and says its pretty good. i'm a cantankerous greybeard so i like the plain old lodge uncoated stuff

that's nice because the outside of raw skillets gets _super grody_ over time. Usually every other year i take this thing out in the yard and wire-wheel the petrified gunk on the outside away, then reseason.

cast iron is like the lowest possible cost per year cookware you can buy. even if you gently caress it up you can 100% restore it with a $1.99 wire wheel on a drill and a nickel's worth of veg oil
