How To Clean A Cast Iron Skillet - Навчання та стиль
Thank you and video straight to the point
phenomenal video Insider Reviews. I crushed that thumbs up on your video. Keep on up the quality work.
lol
By this comment and your username. I can already tell ur one cool dude
Sorry to be offtopic but does anybody know a tool to log back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb lost my account password. I appreciate any tricks you can give me
@Preston Jasper instablaster ;)
@Eric John Thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out now.
Seems to take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
I just cook at an insanely high heat with lots of oil, wash it like a normal pan, it's fine. It's actually more non-stick now than ever.
So your tellin me that ya put that thing in the dishwasher? Bless that poor cast iron's heart.
@@maddiebishop8114 nope, my dishwasher is way too small for that, but I'm sure it would be fine, I think this pan will outlive me.
@@CourtneyCoulson Oh, Good. A cast iron don't deserve anything worse than a dishwasher
Do you use soap? If yes, has it been an issue?
I Have A Question! I just bought a new lodge 12 inch cast iron that is already pre seasoned. Should I wash it first with soap? Basically what should I do first? It’s brand new! Also is grape seeds oil good for seasoning? I’m just starring at my new skillet not knowing what to do.
I hope you learned what to do in 4 months
Lmao although its 5 months due, I recently got my own 12 inch, so everything u said should be done, first wash, pre seasoned doesnt do much, season it anyways, and flax as well as grape oil is good I think.
As you don't know who possibly touched the skillet eith their filthy hands before, you should always wash a new skillet with some soap.
Grapeseed oil is a good choice for seasoning and daily maintenance.
Flaxseed oil should only be used to season the skillet (letting it burn in to turn into polymer). DON'T use flaxseed oil to cook, it has a way too low smoke point and will produce all kinds of nasty byproducts at cooking temperatures. DON'T use it for daily maintenance either. Flaxseed oil is a drying oil and will start to polymerize quickly. If you wipe the skillet with it without burning it in, it will polymerize partially before the next use leaving a sticky, rubbery mess on the skillet.
Just use soap and water (Method brand or 7th Gen, not Dawn) to clean your dang pan 🙄 The reason our grandma didn't originally use soap is because it contained lye which is corrosive. Soap today doesn't have lye so just wash your pan but only if you need to then dry it, apply a thin layer avocado oil with a paper towel (it's WAY cheaper than grapeseed and you can also use it to cook with since it has a high smoke point) heat until JUST BEFORE you see wisps of smoke, wipe again with same paper towel focusing on the edge and place upside down in your oven.
It's not that difficult and you are literally seasoning it each time when you do this.
Thank you! I think all these complicated instructions scare people away from cast iron.
I just rinse it when it's hot with a sponge and running hot water, no need to use soap. Then i dry it and re apply oil and remove excess with towel.
Funny... grapeseed oil is cheap here in Europe while avocado oil is quite pricey. I prefer olive oil as rust protection because it takes longer than other oils before it turns rancid.
@@berniem.6965 I use bacon grease
Avocado oil is cheaper than grape seed oil?? Where?? I live in California, where we’re closest to most avocado sources, and avocado oil is almost two times more expensive than grape seed
If you use hot enough water cleaning it then you don't have to reheat it to add the oil
Turns out I've been washing my skillet completely wrong 🤣🤣
Before I knew what I was doing, I used a metal abrasive wire brush … is it ruined? Can it be treated correctly moving forward and save the pan?
I think itll be ok, just wash with coarse salt, season every so often, and ur set
Neat
Do you need to do the oil part?
That’s the most important
but how do you remove the smell of Steak, fish, etc.. if you don't use soap?
Use baking soda once empty over the grease, add hot water and soft scrape with wooden spoon or scrub (careful water is hot). Then rise. This removes odors and grease, so season the pan after.
Just wash it and I think everything is good, a bit of hot water, salt, scrub, rinse
Scrub it with a lemon verge after fish :)
“Wedge”
@@AnastasiaVisotsky any citrus. But it's not really that good for the pan.
it is misleading to sell all the links to earn commission
Was this an ad?
No expert here but wouldn’t the chain absorb the heat
You don't wash an extremely hot skillet. And if you're going to use a cleaning tool that brings your hands in contact with the water, simply don't use water so hot that it will hurt you.
I usually start cleaning with a brush or scraper and boiling water. My hands then don't get into contact with the water. If there's still residue left, I continue with the chainmail cleaner and warm water. If necessary, I also use some dish soap. If you do so, don't forget to wipe the dry skillet with some oil in the end as the soap completely removes all oil, leaving the skillet unprotected from rust.
That pan needs more layers of seasoning just saying
What are you doing?! Oh my god 😰😰😰
He's cleaning a cast iron skillet.
Legit and so many hell no moments in this video
I use soap on my cast iron. A mixture of dawn, vinegar and salt water. Yes it does dry out. But I try and use a little as possible. I just can't not use some type of soap or else the grease builds over time. Then I season it afterwards. The cast iron doesn't cook evenly. That's the only thing I don't like!
COURSE SALT 🧂!!!!!!!!!
It's just a waste of time.
TOTAL WASTE OF TIME
A cast iron skillet in general or this method of cleaning?
Here's the actual perfect way to clean a cast iron pan:
Step 1 - Get a stainless steel pan
Step 2 - Store the cast iron in the cupboard
Step 3 - Use the stainless steel pan for cooking
Step 4 - Use the time you save to bond with your family or develop a hobby
shut your mouth
poor kid never tasted a meal made with cast iron.. And it's funny why he's here to show his ignorance.
Lmao now I feel bad for caring for my cast iron, but isnr it normal to sleep with a pan?
Strange, it takes me much less time to clean my cast iron and cabon steel skillets compared to my stainless steel pans. If nothing sticks, I wipe the skillet with a paper towel and put it away. If food sticks, it's pretty much the same cleaning procedure for all materials. So hot water, a brush, a scraper or a chainmail cleaner and some soap. My cast iron and carbon steel skillets then are clean and only require a quick wiping with a little oil. The stainless steel skillet may also be clean at that point. But if I seared at high temperatures, there still will be residue left which then requires abrasives like steel wool, a rough ScotchBrite cleaner or chemical cleaners like Barkeeper's Friend (which not only contains oxal acid but also polishing particles).
The effort required to clean and maintain iron cookware is vastly overrated. With some experience and the patina getting better and better over time, the effort is actually minimal.
It's a little more effort than with Teflon cookware (except for nothing being stuck in which case you only need a paper towel). But it's definitely less effort compared to stainless steel if you want that to look shiny again
Easy fix, dont buy a cast iron lol
Just clean it like any other item wtf is wrong with all these random useless extra steps
Neat
