O primeiro passo para a manutenção de uma frigideira de ferro fundido é o tempero. Essa técnica envolve a aplicação de um óleo na superfície da frigideira e aquecê-la, permitindo que o óleo penetre nos poros do ferro. Essa camada cria uma proteção contra a ferrugem e melhora as propriedades antiaderentes. Para temperar a frigideira, escolha um óleo com um alto ponto de fumaça, como óleo de canola ou azeite de oliva.

One of the most appealing features of cast iron is its exceptional heat retention and distribution. Unlike some other materials that can create hot spots, cast iron heats evenly and maintains a consistent temperature. This property ensures that every part of your food receives the same amount of heat, resulting in perfectly cooked steaks, chicken, or vegetables. The even cooking also helps develop that coveted sear, which enhances the flavor and texture of grilled dishes.

The enamel coating not only enhances the appearance of the Dutch oven but also serves practical purposes. It protects the cast iron from rust and makes the cookware easy to clean. Unlike traditional cast iron, which requires seasoning and special care, enameled cast iron is dishwasher-safe and can be used with acidic ingredients without fear of damaging the surface. This convenience allows home cooks to experiment with a wide array of recipes, from tangy tomato sauces to zesty curries.
