Method for open cast iron pan

Many people think that wok cooking is inconvenient, and the smell of oil smoke is not as good as non-stick cooking, but in fact wok cooking is the healthiest. Many chefs will boil the pan before cooking in a cast iron pan, which will take longer and have better effect.

First of all, clean the cast iron pan, basically add some warm water and detergent. Wash it several times when you wash it. It is recommended to use a soft rag when wiping. Then, put the cleaned wok on the stove and dry it with low fire, and pour 50 ml of vegetable oil or animal oil for about one minute.

Then use a clean wooden spatula to evenly spread the oil around the cast iron pot, and slowly burn it with a small fire to make the bottom of the pot fully absorb the oil. Turn off the fire until the oil is cool, pour it out, wash it with warm water, air it for a few times and dry it with low fire, then pour in 30 ml of animal oil or vegetable oil, spread it evenly, cook it for another 3 minutes, and the pan is finished.
