I inherited my grandmothers dutch oven (center), it’s probably 70 years old now. Still cooks up a storm!
Then I found I lived an easy drive from an outlet store and, well, yeah, that happened. :)
I use it regularly, I used to be in the Le Creuset sub on reddit, but then reddit went to hell. :(
So… any other fans out there?
Why is that? That’s the one thing that’s always kinda freaked me out about cooking with a cast iron pan which is why I shied away from it for so long.
My instinct is to just scrub a pan until its clean. Not leave it to be seasoned. Unless what I saw in real life was wrong? my ex cooked with a cast iron pan.
Bare cast iron needs to be seasoned to establish a slick, non-stick, surface.
Enameled cast iron already has an enamel coating on it, no seasoning required.
Nice! Sounds like I’m gonna get me an enameled one.
