Cast iron skillets have become a beloved staple in many kitchens.
Not only can bacteria grow inside a crack, but the pan will also break apart eventually.
But with proper use and care, a cast iron skillet can last for years or even generations.
However, there are better and easier ways to clean a cast iron skillet.
Instead of a scouring pad, use a bristle brush to remove any stuck-on food.
An even easier method is to pour very hot water into the pan to loosen any particles.
Scrape off food bits with a spatula.
Use another paper towel to wipe off the excess.
Now your pan is ready for your next kitchen masterpiece.
