THIS video is what I’ve been waiting for. I have beautiful cast iron pans that my grandmother gave me. Now I’ll be able to use them. ✨Thank You so much! 😃🥳
Thank you for this. I’ve watched other videos and they have missed the step of heating, cooling and oiling the pan multiple times. No wonder my pans have always turned out just OK.
Easy: Wash with soap and water, dry it well with a towel (even better if you can heat dry it on the stove) and put it away. If you don't use it everyday and/or live in an area with a humid climate you should put a thin coat of oil on it everytime after washing it. That's literally all you need to know.
@@caraziegel7652 thanks for the reply , i was about to dump mine , but think I will try and save it , I will try coconut oil as it’s easier to get here in Jamaica 🇯🇲. Thanks..
I've washed it with soap and water with a SOS pad. Rinse with hot water really good and dry it really good. Then apply a thin coat of veg oil inside and out and bake in the oven at 350 for one hour. It comes out like brand new.
Sir, sir how did you know I needed this video? Thank you sooooo much! I have two, one belonged to my auntie who passed. I didn't want to get rid of it, I just know there was a way to clean and re-season it. 🍳❤Thanks again
This is by far the best video I have seen on this issue. I really appreciate it because I ruined my cast iron skillet by putting it in the washer. It came out rusted. I will be doing this. Thank you for sharing.
Great explanation. I did a similar process for my cast iron pans, eight years ago, and they are still outstanding. Can wash with soap and water. Used Flax oil, baked on at 450 degrees, let the oven cool with the pan still in the oven, and did this five times. My fry pans were used by my mom, back in the 1940's, and they still work.
Pans manufactured before the 1950s are more likely to contain lead. Lead was used as an alloying element and presents a health risk, best to get those pans tested.
Use vinegar, salt and fill the pan with water. Let it boil for a few minutes without scrubbing the burnt portion.If desired add a few drops of liquid soap. Take a wooden spoon and gently remove the burnt food. Remove from heat. Allow it to cool and wash as usual. Do not put cold water in a hot nonstick as it causes the pan to wobble. If it was badly burnt apply a little oil, heat and rewash.
I learned this same technique many years ago from my dad it worked so well I went out of my way to find old rusty pans my friends and family finely told me to stop I couldn't give them away you have inspired me to find a nasty pan and season it lol
Ok I have many cast iron pans which I've had for many years my oldest is 78years old handed down from my great grand mother... This is a great way to RE season a pan... Honestly I use white play sand...
Another thing to know about cast iron is that it can crack. Before buying a used cast iron pan hold it by the handle and let the pan hang down (vertically). Then give the back of the pan a good flick with your finger. If it rings it’s a good pan, it it makes a thud it has a crack.
Yes!!! They can also warp… place them flat surface and see if they wobble… then take a credit card and hold it on the bottom inside and out and make sure you can’t see any light … that it’s flat and tight against each surface… no warping!
I am so happy I thank you for the advice the best yet for cleaning cast iron less messy. I have two cast iron pans I bought haven’t used because they need cleaning. I can’t thank you enough that will be my projects to do this winter when I have my wood stove on. I am so excited to finally get them done so I can use them. Thanks for sharing that valuable information, you are appreciated.❤

I love cast iron, have been collecting it for over 40yrs. My son also has started a collection. He & his fiancee have a pegboard that is on the wall by their range. They receny picked up a kettle ( for stews,etc., to can up for the winter. They bought it at a swap meet/ flea market. A very nice addition. I just used salt on a cast iron saucepan. Yes, you can make pasta in a cast iron pot. I have been using that pan for 25(?)yrs. Loved your antics while you presented your video. ❤
I remove rust from my cooking pans, by, adding cold water in the pan, let it boils with a quick boil -- then dry pan with paper towels - removing rust, wash pan,dry,and use a little oil to coat pan...the end. Use oil after each use to keep pan from rusting.
That's a lodge cast iron . It's one of the best pans made . Good thing you found it . Would have been a shame it went into the trash . They can be pricey as new . So you got away with a really good deal on that pan.
I was looking at a square grill bottom frying pan in a Value Village and a passerby told me it was a good one and that $20.00 for it was ‘cheap’. It is a Lodge. I bought it because a stranger said it was good.
❤ Thank you so much for this video. I actually use cast iron to cook with all of the time and I love it, however, I was gifted an old, HUGE, and Rusty cast Iron Skillet with matching lid, wasn't sure how to properly clean it without damaging it. This video was So Helpful! ❤
This was EXCELLENT.!! I bought pans that said they needed to be 'seasoned' and I did according their directions but it must have been bad directions because everything sticks and they are awful to cook with. They are stainless steel. But I also have a couple of pans like yours. So I will most definitely follow your instruction on how to season them. I'm so grateful I stumbled across your post in my yt feed.!! Thank you so much for this knowledge!! ❤
...if you're a *certain age,* one *knows* how to cure Cast Iron!!!!!! I learned by use and observation. However, I did have to instruct my kids because they are definitely not "of a certain age!" Good job here!
You did a great job! I bought a “seasoned” Lodge pan, and only clean it with a scrub brush and water. The problem I have is that I am getting a layer of white haze in my pan. This is my first cast iron. What am I doing wrong??
Great informational video on cleaning an old cast iron pan. Thank you, I repeated 0:41 about three times and just had a nice laugh, thank you for keeping the blooper and being authentic in your videos. I hope you and your family experince God's love for you all. God bless you 🕊🙏
No matter what you hear you absolutely 100% can use dish soap. You can even scrub with a nylon brush and it does not affect the seasoning if you reseason it after washing for like 5 minutes on stove
@KN-lu5ty - Absolutely agree. I only need a few drops of dish soap most of the time. I've been using everything from 100 year old pans to relatively new pans. Never harmed any of them. Sometimes I only need salt and water, but most of the time, dish soap and water. The key is to make certain they are completely dry after washing, and then give a quick reseason on the stove top, and it's good to go. (I use my cast iron almost daily, and I rotate the ones I use.)
@@llofdarkwater9152 Yep daily here too even multiple times a day and no need to reseason even every time maybe once every couple times. Don't understand at all the constant parroting about no dish soap lol!! It's sad because people literally don't try cast iron because they hear they can't wash them. And they're life changing
Soapy water and a dish brush. Dry after cleaning and apply a little oil, I use rapeseed oil, and wipe the pan out with the oil using a paper towel. I have been doing this for decades, and my pans are non- sticking .

Thank you very much Brandon! This video was especially helpful and interesting. The pan was in sad shape and ended up looking almost new, and the process is very easy. I have an old cast iron fry pan I'll try this on. Recently, I bought an enameled cast Dutch oven, beautiful, and did much research on prepping it for use by seasoning it with oil. Used grapeseed oil, but it was a *disaster* and nearly ruined the pan because the oil turned into a glue-like substance and was almost impossible to remove. It took days of scrubbing with a variety of implements and products. Any suggestions? Your humor in this one is fantastic....love your videos!
I use America’s Test Kitchen’s method. Put your cast iron into a self cleaning oven cycle. It will remove everything. Then you start layering flaxseed oil and baking it. It takes a while but my cast iron is non stick now. Very easy to clean and maintain. Look up ATK Cast Iron Seasoning.
Hi. I clean my cast iron skillet with vinegar and water. I oil it with extra virgin olive oil. After seasoning and cooking it the pan has a bumpy feel. What did I do wrong please?
For mine I scrubbed off the excess rust with soap and water and then dried it with a paper towel and then scrubbed it with oil and salt then wiped out the rust and salt
You need use a led / other heavy metals test kit. Sone people use them to smelt metals but it contaminates them. It's super important that you check this, especially if its a old one (some were manufactured with lead) or its thrifted.
THIS video is what I’ve been waiting for. I have beautiful cast iron pans that my grandmother gave me. Now I’ll be able to use them. ✨Thank You so much! 😃🥳

happy cleaning!
What other oil can you use if you don't have avocado ,nice video ,thanks for posting .
@@VictorG930 any high heat oil - not olive oil
@@caraziegel7652 thanks for the reply , i was about to dump mine , but think I will try and save it , I will try coconut oil as it’s easier to get here in Jamaica 🇯🇲. Thanks..
Coconut oil has a very low smoking point. Better to use rendered pig fat or lard
The best video that I have seen on this art and I'm 75 years old and have been using cast iron forever!
I was skeptical and now amazed
I've washed it with soap and water with a SOS pad. Rinse with hot water really good and dry it really good. Then apply a thin coat of veg oil inside and out and bake in the oven at 350 for one hour. It comes out like brand new.

If grandma said do it that way then I know it works. Grandmas know everything.👍👍
This looks like the easiest way so far. Thanks to you and your grandma i'm going to give it a try.
I usually use grape seed oil to season the whole pan. Makes a really strong layer. Flax seed tended to flake on me. Idk why.
ua-cam.com/video/3bZVk0LpilM/v-deo.htmlsi=ETBVb41zm_KUlm4C
This explains the flax seed oil well.
Avocado oil is better because it’s non inflammatory. For your body, not the pan😂
I knew I wasn’t the only one. I do the same.
High heat suinflower oil works for me.

Could I use tallow for the seasoning?… I don’t use vegetable oils in my kitchen!
Yes, animal fat is the best.
Hello and thank you for the information 😊. May I ask why you need to put the pan in the oven before seasoning it?
The oven helps it dry faster after rinsing so it doesn’t start to rust before you start seasoning it.
They can also warp… place them flat surface and see if they wobble… then take a credit card and hold it on the bottom inside and out and make sure you can’t see any light … that it’s flat and tight against each surface… no warping!
I have a pan that I am giving to,y granddaughter next year. How do I store it since it has a slightly oily surface?
Thank you for your video. I am nearly throw the pan away.
How often do you need to do this to keep it in good shape? Once a year? Or is this a one-time thing?
I wonder if this would work to clean the backs of your stainless steel pans are the backs of other pans
Many thanks for sharing this useful info......... hopefully my cast iron pan will last for another thirty years
Thank you! Good information one can always use stuff like that!
Can you do a video on how to clean them once seasoned and how often to season them pls?

I use rendered pork fat instead of oil. It has a very high smoking point and nothing, but nothing, sticks to it.😊
Is that sold at Walmart?
@@nitaweitzel822 Yes, it is called lard
but will it go rancid like some other coatings like crisco will?

Enameled doesnt season, its already "coated" you would only need to season a non enameled pan...
So what was the temperature you set your oven to for the 30 minute seasoning process?
450
