No other metal is as lengthy-lasting and functions as nicely for spreading and retaining heat evenly during cooking. Lodge's Logic line of cookware comes factory pre-seasoned with the company's vegetable oil formula, and is ready to use proper out of the box. Right after cooking, just scrub the cast iron with a stiff brush and hot water, no soap, and dry quickly.

Breakfast in specific somehow tastes extra hearty when cooked in a heavy cast-iron skillet. Cast iron loves a campfire, a stovetop, or an oven, and can slow-cook foods without having scorching and sear meat at higher temperatures. On the compact side at eight inches in diameter, this skillet cooks up a couple eggs or hamburgers, or a steak for a single. The looped deal with makes it possible for hanging, and the two side spouts pour off grease or juice. Even though the pan comes pre-seasoned, applying a tiny vegetable oil before use aids stop food from sticking. Regardless of whether used in a kitchen or camp, this virtually indestructible pan should last for generations and is covered by a lifetime warranty. --Ann Bieri

Costumer Critiques

I cook for myself, so this little skillet is the fantastic size for three-egg omelet in the morning, or veggie saute for dinner. I am a little to medium sized female w/ skinny arms, but this skillet is not too heavy so I can still lift it w/ one arm. It is not certainly non-stick for the reason that the eggs will not easily slide off the pan like they would from a very good new non-stick pan, but it's a lot much far better compared w/ my stainless steel skillets. As lengthy as you soak the pan in water soon after cooking, by the time you finish your meal, the food residue can be quickly washed off with a brush or sponge. I use a nylon dish brush with hot water and cleaning is quite quickly and simple and easy. I by no means use soap or steel wool. Leaving a bit grease on acts like re-seasoning. This is the similar way I take care of my carbon-steel wok. The only complaint I have is that the deal with is way too brief. The skillet is somewhat heavy but even with my small hands it still feels as if the handle only fits half of my palm, so it forces your hand to hold it actually close to the hot pan - genuinely negative design. Though I use it everyday and acquire it indispensable, the brief manage alone is why I am unwilling to give it a five star rating.

Lodge skillets absolutely are one particular of the last awesome bargains in cookware. I have a few pieces in the Lodge Logic line, and they make my heart sing... the non-stick patina that is developed more than months/years of use, the substantial heft of each and every piece, the rustic beauty, and most of all, that unmistakable delicious flavor that only cast iron can impart.

I not too long ago added two of these 8" skillets to my collection. I had been eyeing them for my every day single-sized omelets (I strategy to wait till the skillets are a bit a great deal more seasoned ahead of attempting to cook eggs in them), but every day I feel of countless new utilizes for them. They are excellent for:

- a single, excellent grilled-cheese sandwich

- heating up last night's left-overs

- sauteing infant portabella mushrooms as a side dish for dinner

- skillet creme brulee or blackberry cobbler with ice cream for dinner guests - each and every guest gets their own perfectly-sized skillet

- quesadillas

- huuuuuge, perfectly-shaped sourdough pancakes, produced one particular at a time (or two at a time if you have two of these handy skillets!)

- crepes

- tapas... get quite a few of these for various kinds of tapas and serve right in the skillet

- French toast for one particular

- baked brie

- individual-sized frittatas or quiches

- skillet no-knead bread or cornbread

and so a lot even more... I certainly wish I'd known about these when I was single. I would have eaten so substantially superior! But, they come in so handy as junior companions to my 12" workhorse skillet and my two-burner reversible grill/griddle, I am happy to make up lost time with these small gems.

At $ten and alter, I recommend you acquire as a large number of as there are members of your household. Or if you are single, shop for two... so you can impress dates by serving individual-sized appetizers or dessert! Then ask for two extra for Christmas, so you can add a enjoyable, gourmet twist to your dinner parties.

As with all cast iron, even though this is pre-seasoned, it's a fine notion to season it once again oneself just before making use of. Generally you do not use soap or detergent on cast iron (and Never put cast iron in the dishwasher), but when I initial get a new piece, I hand-wash it with hot water and a tiny drop of mild dish soap. Dry it completely with a dish towel... then, to eliminate any remaining water that has been absorbed, put it on the stove or in a hot oven for a few minutes so that any remaining water will evaporate.

Then, coat with a light coating of grapeseed oil or organic vegetable shortening. Turn the oven on 400 (or higher, if you dare!) degrees. Put your new skillet into the oven upside-down and line the bottom of the oven with aluminum foil to catch any drips. "Bake" for 1-2 hours. Turn the oven off, then leave the skillets in all night to cool and solidify. Your skillet will have a deeper hue and glossy sheen that it didn't have when you purchased it. This will make it a bit alot more naturally non-stick. The extra you use it (or if you want, you can repeat the above seasoning procedure), the much more non-stick it will develop into.

With suitable care, cast iron will grow to be your most properly-loved cookware. I'm so excited to have added two of these 8" skillets to my Lodge cast iron collection and cannot wait to come up with even extra uses for these adorable, super-handy tiny skillets!
