¨It's cold right now¨ Proceeds to smoke when the wet sponge is put on it. It is easier to clean it while it's still a little warm though so it's fine. It's just the wording made me laugh a little.
lol we were wondering if someone was going to say something. I definitely meant to say its cooled down enough to touch. Also yes! Washing while its still a little warm makes it very easy to clean!
That's a great technique, we clean our pans like that sometimes ourselves. The seasoning should not be affected. If the pan is extremely hot and the water is extremely cold, it is possible to cause warping, but we have not ever actually seen it with our pans. Just a disclaimer.
