A cast iron pan is a home cook’s trusted companion. It can get very hot when needed and also retains heat well. With proper care, a cast iron pan lasts for years, from one generation to the next, and only gets better with age. Suitable for all types of stoves. This pan is pre-seasoned with vegetable oil, and its non-stick properties improve with each use. Hand wash with hot water and dry thoroughly, then wipe with cooking oil if necessary. Cast iron pans are not suitable for food storage. Heat resistance up to 260 degrees.
