SEO article: How to care for a cast-iron pan
How to care for a cast-iron pan so it lasts a lifetime
A good cast-iron pan can outlive its owner, but only if it's looked after. The good news: caring for cast iron takes about two minutes after each use. Here's what to do every day, how to season the pan and what to do if rust appears.
Daily care: clean while it's warm
- Let the pan cool slightly, but clean it while it's still warm. Food comes off more easily.
- Rinse with hot water and scrub with a stiff brush or a chain-mail scrubber. A drop of mild dish soap is fine; modern soaps won't strip properly built seasoning.
- Dry completely. Wipe with a towel, then put the pan on low heat for 2–3 minutes until every drop has evaporated.
- Oil lightly. Rub in half a teaspoon of vegetable oil with a paper towel, then wipe off the excess. The surface should look matte, not shiny.
Avoid: soaking the pan, the dishwasher and leaving it to air-dry. All three lead to rust.
How to season cast iron
Seasoning is a thin layer of oil baked onto the metal. It protects the pan from rust and makes it naturally non-stick. Re-season a new pan once before first use and any pan that looks dull or patchy.
| Step | What to do | Time |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Wash, dry and warm the pan | 5 min |
| 2 | Rub a thin layer of oil with a high smoke point everywhere, including the handle | 2 min |
| 3 | Wipe off as much oil as you can | 1 min |
| 4 | Bake upside down at 230 °C, with foil on the rack below | 1 hour |
| 5 | Let it cool in the oven | 1–2 hours |
Repeat 2–3 times for a new or restored pan.
What to do if your cast iron rusts
Light orange spots are not a disaster. Scrub them off with steel wool and a little water until you see bare grey metal, rinse, dry on the stove and season the pan using the table above. After two rounds, the pan will cook as well as before.
Quick answers
Can I cook tomatoes in cast iron? Yes, for short dishes. Long-simmered acidic sauces can wear down fresh seasoning.
Why is my pan sticky? Too much oil was left on during seasoning. Bake it again for an hour at 230 °C.

Questions and answers
Is the recipe tested?
We write from your recipe and do not cook it ourselves. If you ask us to suggest a recipe, the amounts are standard ones marked for you to test before publishing.
Will the recipe card work with my plugin?
The card comes as labelled fields you paste into WP Recipe Maker, Tasty Recipes or a similar plugin, which then adds the recipe markup.
Can you keep the intro short?
Yes, that is the default: readers want the recipe, so the story is a few paragraphs at most.
