Comment on Is it safe to use pans with peeling nonstick coating?

  Once you season cast iron you can clean it however you want. Even with soap. The oils you bake on there at such high heat causes polymerization.

  You don’t have to continue to season cast iron after cleaning it, unless you’re cleaning it with a fucking angle grinder.

    Putting a seasoned cast iron pan in the dishwasher isn’t a great idea, in my experience

    Dishwashers can have some pretty high pressures involved, I wouldn’t be surprised if it can literally chip the seasoning off.

      I might be wrong, but I think if your “seasoning” is thick enough to chip off it means you did it wrong and failed to scrub away the excess food residue.

  I have a cast iron pan that I’ve used for almost 10 years. I seasoned it when I got it. To clean it, I scrub it with steel wool, dry it off then rub a coat of oil on it. It still looks and works perfectly. Cast iron is extremely easy to clean and upkeep.

    Yeh,

    Scrubbing it with steel wool, drying it and then rubbing in oil doesn’t sound as easy as ‘put in dishwasher’. I couldn’t be doing with that, cooking for a family every day

      I cook for a family of four every day and taking 3 minutes to clean my cast iron pan is the least time consuming part of it. You’re being dramatic.

        I’m not being dramatic- I just don’t see much benefit from the faff. And I’ve never actually found a well-seasoned cast iron pan that is as non-stick as a non-stick.

        … hence the need for the wire wool, I guess.

    I don’t see why not? They won’t rust in their like cast iron would

      Not about rust, but the chemicals in the detergent can harm the coating iirc.
