Old Mountain Cast Iron Preseasoned Skillet
Discover the Old Mountain Cast Iron Preseasoned Skillet, featuring a 6.5-inch diameter and a depth of 1.25 inches. This essential kitchen tool heats evenly and retains heat exceptionally well, making it perfect for a wide range of cooking methods, from frying and sautéing to grilling, roasting, stewing, and baking.
Cleaning is easy: after cooking, simply boil hot water in the skillet—avoid using detergents, as they can strip the seasoning. Never place a hot skillet in cold water to prevent warping or cracking. After pouring out the boiling water, wipe the skillet dry with a paper towel. For any stubborn residue, gently use a spoon to dislodge it, steering clear of abrasive scrubbers that can damage the seasoned surface.
To maintain your skillet's seasoning, apply a light coat of oil or cooking spray while it's still warm. If you notice any metallic taste or rust, wash it with hot, soapy water, remove the rust, and reseason. Store your skillet in a cool, dry place, and if using a lid, insert a paper towel between the lid and skillet to promote air circulation. Enjoy the long-lasting durability and excellent heat retention of your Old Mountain skillet for years to come!
Seasoning Instructions: Seasoning your cast iron cookware is a straightforward process that allows oil to penetrate the pores of the iron, creating a black, nonstick surface. If your Old Mountain cookware needs reseasoning, follow these steps:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Wash the cast iron skillet with hot, soapy water using a stiff brush. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.
3. Generously coat both the inside and outside surfaces with food-grade mineral oil, vegetable oil, lard, or bacon fat.
4. Place the cookware on the middle rack of the oven and bake for 30 minutes. Afterward, remove it and wipe away excess oil to prevent pooling. Return it to the oven for another 30 minutes.
