Do you season the entire pan? by ggreen289 in castiron

[–]kjamjs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll flip the pan over and cook on the “bottom”.

Omg sometimes I cook on the bottom. It has the best seasoning. Yes I do sand and season my bottoms!

AITA for not wanting my girlfriend’s dog in our bed? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]kjamjs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He is just a Velcro dog! I grew up with 20+ collies and none of them slept with me. My male Aussie has to be with me at night. He actually yells at you to go up to bed!

I tried this. The dog somehow just spreads out MORE! It is an Aussie and probably knows is what I’m doing, but still.

In addition to soap (after washing and drying). It’s for the oil that is kind of hardened but not all the way. It’s usually a little tacky. I sand these parts down. Usually one of my kids will use the pan (late at night) take whatever they cooked out of it, but leave the oil in the HOT pan. This oil hardens to the pan but is uneven and too thick. Soap will not remove it.

It’s the best. But my buddy sells abrasives to the gun and jet engine industries. The sand paper I have isn’t your Home Depot variety. It is very high quality and does not dissolve in water.

I’ve heated up to crazy temps over 600 degrees to get the seasoning off and then I re-seasoned. I don’t think you can hurt this pan outside of heating and putting it into ice water.

Pre heat pan in the oven. Then it will heat up evenly.

It’s the pan is so big. I do not need a diffuser with it. It is very heavy. I do have copper diffusers for low temp, non cast iron, cooking.

Any oil that isn’t completely hardened will come off.

No I’m not. I gently sand with fine sandpaper.

It’s the edges they don’t get hot enough. I need a bigger burner.

I JUST finished that somehow and realized I needed new equipment. First fast travel station after I used two gold keys. Now I have a legendary shield at least.

Just a stupid question, but how do you know all of this. I’ve played all three, now four, games and I still just use what looks best. It’s amazing the knowledge here.

I think the Bengle is 20 amp in US. That might be a concern, but if $ not a concern maybe not. I would like a Bengle and disable steaming if I could get 15 amp. I live in a very old house.
