How do you wash cast-iron skillets without wearing them out imediantly?
I take care of mine in the following ways, and found a site with this and many other helpful tips on caring for your cast-iron.: 1. Let the pan cool. Wash it with dishwashing soap and water. Never soak or let soapy water sit in the pan for any length of time. Rinse thoroughly, then dry with paper towels. NEVER put cast-iron cookware in the dishwasher.2. Place the cleaned cast iron pan on the heated burner of your stove for a minute or two to make sure that it is bone dry. While the pan is still hot and on the stove burner, lightly oil inside of pan (I mean a light coat) with a neutral cooking oil. Neutral Oils - Use vegetable oils (canola, sunflower, etc.), shortening (like Crisco shortening) or lard for seasoning your cast iron pans. I recently experimented and found out that food-grade coconut oil/butter also works great.3. Leave pan on the hot burner of stove for a few minutes. Remove from hot burner and wipe excess oil off the pan with a paper towel.4. Store your cast iron cookware with the lids off, especially in humid weather, because if covered, moisture can build up and cause rust. Be sure that you place a couple paper towels inside to make sure that any moisture that forms will be absorbed by the paper towel. Never put the utensil in the dishwasher or store it away without drying it thoroughly.
The only amaryllis I know grows from spores. feed them lots of S*** and keep them in the dark
Wet a clean sponge with warm water and pump some soap into the pan. Then gently wipe the soap around the pan to clean it. Wash off the soap with warm water and dry with a paper towel.
Just clean it like you would clean any other dish.but you don't let it air dry.wipe it out with a towel or somthing. The spread some vegetable oil on the skillet only enough to cover the pan.
