A fantastc review! I am a cast iron fanatic and own and use over 50 pieces. My 5 quart dutch oven has been used for chili and spaghetti sauce for almost 5 decades with only minimal upkeep and I am still using my grandmother's skillet. I am 76 years old.

@dpelpal 3 месяца назад

Anybody who doesn't use soap on their cast iron doesn't know how to season their cast iron. And, not washing cast iron is gross. I've used "lye based" soap that my friend makes on my iron hundreds of times; it makes ZERO difference. Dummies are gon' be dummies lol.

@DKWalser 3 месяца назад

The advice (commandment) not to use soap on cast iron dates to the time when kitchen soaps were lye based. Lye based soaps will remove seasoning from the cast iron. Our modern dish detergents are milder while also being more effective. I mention this only because it helps to explain why what grandma told them is now out of date.

@brianh2287 2 месяца назад

@@DadsGetDubs I just never need to use soap on my cast iron. I just run it under hot water, dry it, and heat it up for a couple of minutes to make sure the moisture is off of it. If I have bits on it after cooking burgers I pour hot water into it before I take it of the stove. This will immediately release all of the bits, then I rinse it with hot water and dry it. If I do get some bits that still remain, which is rare, I simply swirl my chain mail scrubber on it. That always cleans it perfectly. So there just isn't a need for soap on cast iron or carbon steel pans.

It’s not that you can’t use soap, it’s that you rarely need to use soap.

@CptApplestrudl 3 месяца назад

The first thing I did when I got my cast iron pan was sand down the bottom. It was SO coarse, the thought of moving it even slightly on my glas induction stove was not sitting well with me. I sanded the inside a little bit as well, because it was just as rough. I followed this up with washing and seasoning and it works great now. I do apply a thin layer of oil after each use (drying first).

@godnyx117 3 месяца назад

Glad it works well and you have fun! Unfortunately for me, moving my pan when cooking is something I do a lot for a lot of meals I make and that's even worse given the fact that cast iron is very heavy so lifting it up and moving it in the air would be a pain...

@SeraphimCramer 3 месяца назад

Sanding the inside is a bad idea. Nothing wrong with smoothing out the bottom so it doesn't scratch your cooktop, but the rough texture helps to hold on to the seasoning & keep it from chipping. (Though, you say you only sanded it a little bit, so that's probably not an issue, especially if you're happy with how the pan has been performing) Over the years, the cooking surface will actually become smooth on its own as the layers of seasoning eventually build up & fill in the gaps between the grit, but the texture of the cooking surface doesn't play much (if any) role in food sticking.

@haines96 3 месяца назад

Great video, though I will say myth #9 really does depend on the level of seasoning of the pan. For pans that do not have much build-up, a coating after cooking can help since it can build a patina while preheating next time, IMO.

@KekusMagnus 3 месяца назад

Thanks for dispelling these myths. All the internet fuss about cast-iron and carbon-steel being "nonstick" inspired me to switch to them, and I've been quite disappointed. I was used to cracking a few eggs with some oil on a teflon pan and simmering them at a low temperature. This is almost guaranteed to cause a sticky mess on teflon/carbon steel. There is a huge learning curve to cooking sticky foods like eggs or cheese on these pans, and some things you can do on teflon just cannot be replicated, plus waiting for them to pre-heat is annoyingly slow.

If I had to do half of what the "experts" recommend, I would have switched to Teflon decades ago. Watch the eggs in rusty cast iron video, do what he does and you won't have any problems.

@TerryKashat Месяц назад

I can’t imagine grandma not cleaning her pan with soap. I don’t believe it. That said - I use soap and water to clean my pieces all the time. Only 2 rules. After cleaning - Wipe it down with a towel. Get it hot to evaporate all moisture. Lastly - the new pans with a buffed surface - you can use just a thin layer of butter / ghee / or coconut oil and you’re golden.

@bowow0807 3 месяца назад

Oiling after each use is highly location dependent, if you live in a dry climate then yes you can get away with not oiling after each use, but if you live in a super humid area even after oiling it can develop rust

@russbear31 3 месяца назад

That's interesting and makes a lot of sense. I never thought of that. I live in an area that's like a Swedish sauna during the summer. Everything is sticky because of the moisture in the air. Last summer my air conditioning broke down for about a week. There was so much humidity in the air at that time it actually ruined and warped a couple of cheap bookcases. The particleboard soaked up the humidity in the air like a sponge. I could see my cast iron doing the same thing, but I always oil it after every use so I'm safe. 😊

The trouble with 'non stick' pans is that they are only really non stick when they are new gradually that breaks down and the pan is worthless. The only materials I like are cast iron and layered stainless steel. Those materials last a lifetime

3 месяца назад

Nah, they'll stay nonstick as long as you don't damage the surface. Years even. They're nowhere near the durability of iron, steel or carbon; but they'll still last quite a long time if you care for them. That being said, I don't use them as much. The reason is that their coating can't handle high heat, metal instruments or produce as good a sear. And if you chip their coating, you don't want to use it because you could ingest teflon. I still think there's a place for them, and for someone that cares for it, they'll last for years just as well.

@donb1183 3 месяца назад

Great video. I will contest myth #9. I do think a thin oil coating before storing your cast iron is helpful. It will also help maintain the seasoning the next time you cook with it.

There is a reason not to use cast iron on a glass cooktop. My ex husband bought a 14" cast iron skillet. I could barely lift it, so never used or washed it. It was fine on a gas stove, but when we moved to a place with a glass cooktop ... he was putting it on the top, it slipped and dropped maybe 1/2", and ... CRACK! I'm not saying never use cast iron on glass ... just be sure you're strong enough first.

@TheAgentDeus 3 месяца назад

I polished bottom of the cast iron pans to mirror finish when I got a new stove, cheaper ones have really sharp notches and the old stove was really scratched because of that. After polishing - no problem at all. Actually you do not need to do a mirror finish, 240 grit with angle grinder is good enough but I did it because of a bet. Heat radiating is also an issue, especially with induction stoves, I have had several times when the stove turns off because of overheating. This is not only cast iron skillet problem, I have had same results with carbon steel and stainless steel pans, never had a problem with aluminum pans since aluminum takes heat off rapidly because of laws of chemistry and physics. Heat conductivity table from worse to best: Cast iron Stainless steel Carbon steel Aluminum (for food safety reasons, most non-stick pans) Copper (for food safety reasons, now days used only as conductor between stainless steel and stove) The worse the heat conductivity, the smoother the heat release and if you want to cook things evenly, you really want a smooth heat release over quick burn. This is also one reason why Stainless Steel is where it is. Acid resistance, rust resistance, salt resistance and thermal properties close to cast iron. Non-stick properties though ... You need skills, a lot of skills compared to Cast Iron or Carbon Steel.

@godnyx117 3 месяца назад

Thank you for your information! It was for useful, and I like the way you make your videos and how you explain! One thing I always wondered and couldn't test as I never had a cast iron pan myself, would it be possible to achieve the same "performance" of heat retention of cast iron with other pans by turning up the heat once the food is added in the pan for something like half a minute and then turn it down again?

@PrudentReviews 3 месяца назад

Stainless steel, aluminum, and copper pans are a lot more responsive, so when the heat drops from adding food, it quickly bounces back. But you might need to turn the heat up and adjust the dial to get it right. Cast iron holds a more stable temp so once it’s preheated, you don’t need to touch the dial much.

@KekusMagnus 3 месяца назад

You can try, but this is dangerous, as these pans are very easy to overheat, releasing harmful chemicals as the nonstick coating breaks apart. Since they are so thin, you could get dangerous hotspots before you even reach the temperature you want. If you want a uniform temperature distribution AND high heat retention, you need a cladded stainless steel pan (but be warned, almost everything sticks to them)

@trishfitzpatrick2066 15 дней назад

Cast iron is the ultimate bachelor pan. Keep a big ol' 14" skillet on your stove permanently. As long as you are cooking with it frequently, the seasoning gets better and better. In the 19th century, a cast iron pot or pan was practically part of the stove itself. If you are cooking meat all the time, you are creating bits of meat/fat on the surface which is actually a fancy cooking ingredient. The French named it "fond" (French meaning "bottom"). Add broth and simmer, scraping the bits up. Then comes cream (and the French LOVE their cream). Whisk it and simmer until it's turned into a thickness you like for sauce. Add some chopped fresh herbs and salt to taste. VOILA! When it's time to clean, pour in plain water to cover the bottom and simmer again. Wipe it clean and it's done. No need to even carry it to the sink. If you seared a nice steak, pat the excess grease with paper towel and leave it until morning. You'll have the best fried eggs of your life (low temperature, please). Crack the eggs in to the pan once it's heated, splash a wee bit of water in with it and cover. Watch to see how the white on the top steams gently. Remove when it is cooked as you like. You could also use all that lovely fond to cook home fries. On medium heat saute chopped onions (bell peppers too if you like), and then add your diced potatoes. Scrape and saute until all the fond is incorporated into the potato mix. Cover and cook until the potatoes are soft. Add a touch of butter, some seasoning, and finish by browning. Yum!

Why fork out the extra $$$ for these pans when you can get a good quality OXO non stick skillet for half the price and then replace it after 3-4 years? Also, because these pans still have a non stick coating, they are vulnerable to off-gassing at high temperatures. IMHO, all of this hybrid cookware is a "fad" and not worth the money. I would stick with my AllClad cookware and buy a good quality non stick skillet and replace it every few years for a new one.

I am sorry to say this, you are not debunking the myth with old cast iron. The pan you used, although it's a lodge, if it's been made in the last 20 years, there is little to no carbon in the pan and there is a lot of steel in your pan. Old cast iron is 100% iron, for those who may not know, yes there is a difference. Acid and soap will harm the seasoning. Cooking in a true cast iron will up a person's blood level of iron. That being said those with too high of iron levels in their blood work should avoid cooking in true cast iron. I would like to see your - video creator repeat your process on a Griswald, Wagoner or old (40 yr old) Lodge.

Soap absolutely stops a finish from ever forming properly. No it's not gonna immediately remove a full finish but it does damage it and it won't grow if you use soap every time. Also that's falls you dont need oil in a well seasoned pan. You think yours are well seasoned but the aren't 😂 same issue that happens to everybody. Blind leading the blind. A true well seasoned pan is black and shines. Yours you what put them in the oven once or twice and washed it like a normal pan rarely using it. To truly season a pan either takes intentional baking or cooking lots of foods with oil or oily foods without using soap in between. If you cook a good 20 30 times in a pan with no soap and you start to get glossy glass polymer thick enough you don't need oil. In my pan not only can I cook an egg without oil I can add sticky cheese to it and stir it around. Doesn't stick whatsoever. I basically use oil as a food topping. Stop using soap.
