Your Cast-Iron Pan Isn't Ruined — My Nonna's Trick Stops Everything Sticking

Your Cast-Iron Pan Isn't Ruined — My Nonna's Trick Stops Everything Sticking The best pan in my kitchen cost me 5 dollars at a yard sale, because the woman selling it swore it was ruined. Everything stuck to it, she said. A week later, an egg slid across it like a hockey puck on ice. In this one I show you what that black coat on your cast iron is really made of, my nonna's water-dance test for the right heat, the one habit that glues meat to the pan every time, the soap rule everybody gets wrong, what really damages a pan, how I brought that rusty yard-sale skillet back to life in my oven, and the one minute my nonna gave her iron pan every night of her life. Tell me down in the comments, do you have a pan that came down from your mother or your grandmother? What did she cook in it? I read every one. Keep the old ways. They fed us. #CastIron #CastIronSkillet #OldWays #Nonna #OldItalian
