Care & Maintenance Suggestions for Carbon Steel Cookware

Daily Cleaning

• Use warm water and a soft sponge or cloth.

• For stuck-on food, simmer a little water in the pan for 3-5 minutes, then use a pan scraper.

Drying and Storage

• Dry the pan promptly and thoroughly after washing to prevent rust.

• Store in a dry place.

Re-Seasoning Your Pan

• Apply a thin layer of oil with a high-smoke point (like grapeseed oil) to the inside surface, leaving no excess oil. Only apply to the outside and handle if there are signs of rust.

• Place it upside down in a cool oven, set to 500°F and leave for about an hour.

• Allow the pan to cool only enough to handle and repeat the process 2-3 times as required

Dealing with Rust

• Scrub the rusted area with a steel wool pad.

• Re-season the pan as described above.
