7. Can I cook all kinds of food in high quality cast iron cookware?
Yes. Just as long as your cookware is well seasoned. However, avoid storing highly acidic foods (e.g. tomato sauce) in cast iron because the acid will damage the seasoning.
8. What is the best way to clean my cast iron cookware?
After cooking in your Old Mountain cookware, it can best be cleaned by putting in hot water and bringing to a boil. Never use detergent to clean seasoned cookware, as it will remove the seasoning. Also avoid putting hot cast iron into cold water. This can cause cast iron to warp or crack. After pouring out boiling water, wipe dry with a paper towel. If something sticks to the surface, dislodge it by simply using a spoon. Do not use any abrasive item to scrub cookware. Again, this can cut into the seasoned surface. While pan is still warm from washing, apply a fine coating of oil or spray on all surfaces. If metallic taste or signs of rust are noticed, simply wash with hot soapy water. Scour off the rust and then re-season your cookware.
9. What do I do if my cookware needs seasoning or re-seasoning?
Seasoning is a simple process of oil absorbing into the pores of your cast iron cookware leaving a black, nonstick surface. Follow instructions below if your cast iron cookware ever needs seasoning or re-seasoning.
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Wash cast iron cookware with hot soapy water and a stiff brush. Rinse and dry.
3. Completely coat inside and outside surfaces with melted vegetable oil or shortening. (Many people prefer lard or bacon fat.)
4. Place cookware on middle rack of pre-heated oven for 30 minutes. Remove cookware and wipe it almost dry to prevent pooling of shortening or oil. Place cookware back in oven for another 30 minutes.
10. How should I best store my cast iron cookware?
Store your cast iron cookware in a cool dry location. If storing with a lid, place a paper towel between the lid and base to allow circulation of air.
