Preparation Steps
Clean your cast iron skillet thoroughly with hot water and a scrubber or steel wool to remove any rust or residue.
Rinse the skillet well and dry it completely with a towel or paper towels.
Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the entire surface of the skillet, inside and out.
Preheat your oven to 375°F, then place the skillet upside down inside and bake for 1 hour.
Turn off the oven and let the skillet cool inside for a few hours before removing.
Your skillet is now seasoned and ready for use.
Notes
Repeat the seasoning process periodically to maintain a non-stick surface.
