Lodge Pre-Seasoned Cast Iron Skillet, PFAS-Free, Made in the USA, 5.5 Inch

Lodge Cast Iron Square Skillet, Pre-Seasoned, Made in the USA, Black

The Lodge Cast Iron Square Skillet is a small, pre-seasoned pan for cooking individual eggs, grilled cheese or ham and cheese sandwiches, and other small dishes. Made in the USA from cast iron, it is ready to use right out of the box. Cast iron works on a stovetop, in the oven or over a campfire. It retains heat well so you can sear at higher temperatures and keep meals warm, and it distributes heat evenly from the bottom through the sidewalls. Compatible with gas, electric coil and smooth surface non induction stovetops. Made without PFOA or PTFE. Maximum temperature 500 °F. The handle has a hole for hanging when not in use. Black finish, 1.7 pounds. Lodge seasons its cookware with oil applied by an electrostatic spray system and baked at very high temperatures, giving a seasoned finish that would take many months of home use to achieve. It works best when sprayed or lightly coated with vegetable oil before use. A brown spot on the base is carbonized seasoning, not rust, and will darken with use. Care: clean with a stiff nylon brush and hot water. Soap is not recommended and harsh detergents should never be used. Towel dry immediately and apply a light coating of oil while the skillet is still warm. Not dishwasher safe.
