Frying with Cast Iron

You have chosen a Le Creuset cast iron pan. It certainly takes some time to get used to a cast iron pan after using a non-stick aluminum pan or stainless steel pan, as it has different frying characteristics. It takes longer to heat up but then retains the heat longer and fries more evenly, and the pan forms (and this is important) a patina. Initially, these are dull, grayish spots, usually starting in the center of the pan, until the bottom of the pan is covered with them, and then the many small spots become one large spot. This is completely normal behavior for a cast iron pan. Please do not try to wipe off the patina or remove it in any other way. The more patina, the better the pan fries, because the patina is, so to speak, a natural non-stick coating. When properly seasoned, the pan will last for generations. When frying with cast iron pans, it is important that they should always be placed on the stove with good oil; medium heat is sufficient. For cleaning, it is usually enough to wipe out the pan with a paper towel; residues can be removed with hot water.
