Lately I’ve been cooking everything in my cast iron pans. Once you get the hang of them they’re fantastic.

For this pan I sanded the original sandpaper like texture with an orbital sander then applied many coats of seasoning. Sadly, I may have made it too smooth. The seasoning doesn’t stay on as well as another smaller pan that I own. Which means I’ll sand it again with 40 grit in order to help the seasoning stick. Fingers crossed.

    This is a ceramic stove top. There are coils under the glass top. The things I’ve heard about cast iron on glass is that I can scratch the glass top. I’m very careful when I use them to try and mitigated that from happening.

    Use at your own risk.

      I’ve been using them on a ceramic electric stove for 2-3 years already. Even a big Staub Cocotte.

      We just need to be delicate enough to not break the ceramic. And avoid the higher temps because electric stoves are quite powerful.
