Caring for cast iron cookware is straightforward but requires attention. After each use, it is essential to clean the pot or pan without soap to preserve the seasoning. Instead, simply run it under hot water and scrub gently with a brush. For stubborn residue, a combination of salt and oil can help. Once cleaned, the cookware should be dried immediately and lightly coated with oil to prevent rusting. This simple maintenance routine becomes part of the cooking ritual, deepening the cook’s connection to their kitchen tools.

However, if you enjoy the process of seasoning your cookware and want to develop a custom non-stick surface, a traditional cast iron skillet might be the right choice for you.
