In short:
Seasoning helps protect the iron surface from rust and corrosion. The oil coating acts as a barrier, preventing moisture from coming into direct contact with the iron and causing it to oxidize. How? watch the video below.
Made from pure iron, the Black Iron pans have been pre-seasoned from the factory. They will continue to improve over time - the more you use them, the better the cooking results!
Add a fair amount cooking oil or butter to the pan and heat until the pan becomes hot.
Be aware that heating time is very fast on induction cooktops.
Allow the food to form a crisp surface before you move or turn the food.
Reduce the heat when the desired crispy surface has been achieved.
> Watch the Black Iron Use & Care video below.
Simply wash the pan in hot water.
Rub the surface with a stiff brush or sponge.
DO NOT…
- soak the pan.
- wash in the dishwasher.
- use dishwashing liquid.
- use a metal sponge.
> Watch the Black Iron Use & Care video below.
Simply rub off as much as possible with a rough sponge, wash off in hot water and let it dry completely. Then add oil to the pan and season until it starts to smoke. Wipe off the excess oil after cooling down to create a new natural nonstick surface. Your pan is as good as new again.
If the pan accumulates a thick layer of burnt food residue, boil water in the pan for 10-15 minutes
until the majority of the burnt food comes off, or can be scrubbed off under hot water. Season again
with oil to prevent rust and re-establish the natural nonstick surface.
