Um eine Gusseisenpfanne richtig einzubrennen, benötigt man zunächst einige grundlegende Materialien eine saubere Gusseisenpfanne, Pflanzenöl oder Tierfett (wie Schmalz oder Ghee) und einen Ofen. Der erste Schritt besteht darin, die Pfanne gründlich zu reinigen. Bei neuen Pfannen sollte man sicherstellen, dass alle Rückstände aus der Produktion entfernt sind. Bei älteren, möglicherweise angerosteten Pfannen muss man diese gründlich mit Stahlwolle oder einem speziellen Pfannenreiniger abreiben, um Rost und alte, beschädigte Schichten zu entfernen.

When comparing aluminum griddles to cast iron, the most significant differences lie in weight, heat retention, and maintenance. Aluminum griddles are lightweight and heat up quickly, making them easy to handle and ideal for fast cooking tasks. However, they do not retain heat as well as cast iron, which can lead to uneven cooking, especially when preparing thicker cuts of meat. Cast iron griddles, though heavier and slower to heat up, provide superior heat retention and even cooking, making them better suited for tasks that require consistent temperatures over extended periods. Additionally, cast iron's natural non-stick surface improves over time with seasoning, while aluminum griddles often require non-stick coatings that may wear off with use.

Another advantage of round grill skillets is their convenience. Many models are designed to be oven-safe, allowing you to seamlessly transition from stovetop to oven for recipes that require finishing under the broiler. Some skillets even come with detachable handles, making them easy to store in smaller kitchens. Additionally, when it comes to cleaning, a well-seasoned cast iron skillet can be wiped clean, while non-stick options allow for hassle-free maintenance.
