I believe that big deep skillet it really a "Chicken Fryer", I love my cast iron and happy you do too! Finding lids are a real problem. Sometimes I clean them up with white vinagar & a brush, then a wash & season once again. Have fun!

I have four iron skillets and I have been cooking in them for years but I’m going to start looking for more at thrift stores I’d never thought of searching for them at yard sales or thrift stores thanks for the suggestion Val ❤️❤️

I love cast iron skillets! I wish I had more of my mom’s. That’s all she used. Thank you for teaching me how to care for them. I love hanging out with you in your kitchen! ❤️ I couldn’t help but notice your counters are bare. Do you have any news? ❤️❤️

I didn’t get any of my moms either. I only know if her having my Grandmas and she gave them to me. I’m thankful. I love you hanging out on my kitchen too. Amazing you noticed that. Yep. We do have good news! I’ll probably share soon! Thx for watching.

I agree these pans are the best! I use soap lightly if I’ve cooked something that was heavily seasoned, so as to not have the taste residue left behind. Then I reseason with avocado oil just once. I only wish I had a wall where I could hang mine, as you have. Happy Christmas Mrs. Val and Mr. Sweet Hunter.🙏

They are the best!!! Just find the best place you can to display!! Even just one on your stove. I do that too. Merry Christmas to you and yours!

How you clean cast iron in between seasoning, but after using?

@ourforeverfarm

5 ай бұрын

I actually share what I do on the video. But everytime you cook you are seasoning. I wash, dry, dry on heat, then I usually oil mine again. Hope that helps. Thank you for watching.

Val, I have my mom’s iron skillet sitting in my cabinet right now, oh how I remember her fried chicken and fried taters the best! Got a couple questions…how often do you have to season it and I have a flat top range since it’s so heavy kinda scared to use it. Can’t bring myself to part with it, and now you’ve made me want to try and cook something in it.Merry Christmas sending love and prayers your way!🫶🙏🎄🎅🏻🤶

Everytime you cook in it, it seasons it. So if you don’t cook in it often, you would need to season it often. I’m with you on the glass top stove. I’d be a little scared too although I see many KZread’s that do it. But. You can cook on the oven with it!!! Try spatchcocking a chicken in the oven. That would be fun! Thanks for watching.

I have a question. I have a lot of cast iron skillets but have t used them much because I don’t know how to clean them after I’ve cooked in them. My grandmother used to jump on us for washing her cast iron after she cooked in it. How do I clean my cast iron after cooking something in it?

@ourforeverfarm

Exactly like I did in this video just not as extensive if it’s been cooked in because they are seasoned. I wash, rinse, dry, put in warm oven or on an eye to warm it to get it completely dry. Then put a little oil in it. Eventually it will be done easy because as you cook, your pans will be seasoned from the good. Make sure to turn the eyes or oven off when you are finished. Thx for watching. Hope this helps.

@@ourforeverfarm oh ok. So just resets on it every time you cook in it. Thank you!

Can you use them on a electric glass top ? And you said you season them 3. Times do we rewash them lol .do we wash them after every use . Please. I remember as little kid was the best fried potatoes

After you cook do we reseason confused 😂 do wash them like regular pans after each use sorry i watched your great video but still confused how to take care of them

How often do I need to season?

@ourforeverfarm

5 ай бұрын

If you cook often and keep it oiled you will be good. Cooking seasons it. I usually add a little oil after I wash it.

Was that a cold oven? Or is there a certain temperature for the oven?

@ourforeverfarm

5 ай бұрын

I turn in on 350 when seasoning rough pans and leave them in there about 20 min. That’s when the pores in the skillets open when they are warm & absorb all that seasoning up. When they are cold they don’t absorb or release. Thats the only time I use soap. Now if I’m drying a seasoned pan and I have a warm oven turned off, I will see on there to dry. Hope that helps.

Why don't you clean those bad ones with steel wool? Then go through your normal cleaning and seasoning?

I explained on there that u prefer not to use Brillo pads or steel wool because of scratching. I was taught that by my Grandma. If it works let me know! Thank you for watching.
