What sets the Lodge Cast Iron Skillet apart

• Carbon steel construction. The pan is made of carbon steel with a riveted steel handle, without any type of non-stick coating or toxic elements. Completely free of PFOA and PTFE. You can use any utensil when cooking with them, even stainless steel ones.
• Its handling . Even though it is a robust pan, its design is conceived to be easy to handle. It has a long handle, so you can use it comfortably and safely. In addition, it has a hole at the end so you can hang it, if you prefer to store it this way.
  
• Its durability . Being made of iron, it is a pan with enormous durability, you will be able to cook with it for a lifetime.
  
• Factory seasoning or curing . Lodge cast iron skillets are seasoned or cured at the factory so that when you receive them at home, they are ready to cook with. This curing process, called polymerization, involves applying a coating of vegetable oil to the piece and heating it in the oven to a high enough temperature so that the oil bonds to the iron. This process gives Lodge cookware its classic black patina, creating a naturally nonstick cooking surface that is also a protective layer that helps prevent the cookware from rusting.
• Its excellent non-stick properties . The Lodge cast iron skillet offers a natural non-stick coating, which allows you to cook almost without oil. Plus, the more you use it, the more non-stick it will become.
  
• Its rapid heating and heat retention . Being made of carbon steel, it heats up faster than a cast iron pan. The body of the pan distributes and maintains heat evenly for longer. This allows food to be sealed in its own juices, maintaining all its flavour. The result is much tastier, just like the flavours of always.
• Its versatility. The Logde cast iron frying pan is suitable for all types of cookers and heat sources. You can cook with it on gas, ceramic, electric, induction, wood-burning stoves, barbecues and even in the oven.
• Lodge's 125+ years of experience in iron casting manufacturing . Manufacturers since 1896, Lodge is an iconic brand not only in the USA, its country of origin, and where all its iron and cast iron products are still manufactured in the Lodge foundries in South Pittsburgh, Tennessee.

When you want to use it, you just have to let it heat up gradually, so that the heat is evenly distributed throughout the piece, and start cooking when it is very hot. To clean it, let it cool down first; wash it with a sponge and non-abrasive detergent and lightly oil the inside surface to prevent it from rusting. For optimal preservation, it is recommended to always store it in a dry place.

NOTE: Factory seasoning will give your Lodge cast iron skillet a rustic finish with some imperfections, such as a brown mark on the rim, handle or knob. Don't worry! These are small spots where the oil hasn't soaked into the iron, but your piece is safe to use. This is not a defect or rust and will disappear with regular use and care.
