I bought a well seasoned cast skillet, i wanted to re season it, with vegetable oil.But today i noticed the handle, is sticky and the side as well as the bottom i keep, it stored in my oven what's wrong with my skillet.
I would use a new brush (read:never had soap on it) with fairly stiff bristles to scrub the skillet under very hot water to remove any of the stickinessIf water alone doesn't remove the stickiness use a mild soap but be sure to season the pan after washing and dryingTo season: Cover bottom rack with aluminum foil Preheat over to 350? Coat the entire skillet in shortening Place skillet upside down on top rack Leave in oven for 1-1.5 hours Turn off oven and allow skillet to cool in the ovenIt should be good to go after thatAlways make sure to wipe down your skillet with a fresh coat of oil after cooking while it is still warm.
