My New "Go To" Pan in the Kitchen
This is a fantastic piece of cookware if you season it correctly. Mine turned out perfectly non-stick and will now be my "go to" pan for many dishes in the kitchen. Would suggest taking your time seasoning and following these steps:
1. Preheat the new pan in the oven @ 200 for about 30 min on a baking tray lined with partchment paper. This will soften the wax coating on the pan.
2. Under very hot water, wash the pan in soap and scrub with a brush or hard sponge to remove the beeswax. Suggest feeling with your fingers for smoothness inside and out. This will be a sign that you removed all the beeswax.
3. Back in the over @ 200 degrees for about 10 min or until dry.
4. Remove from oven and boost the temp to 500. Coat with Flax Seed Oil (Lightly) and put in the over upside down for about an hour.
5. Let the pan cool fully then repeat steps 3 & 4 about 3 or 4 total times.
Key is to have a LIGHT coverage of oil each time so it bonds to the pan. Too much and you will have challenges getting this seasoned correctly.
