Benefits of cast iron cookware

The first is to be evenly heated, which effectively reduces the cooking time, and the oil fume will also be reduced. The second is the uncoated design of the cast iron pan, which does not contain any chemical substances, which is safer and healthier; the last is the physical non-stick pan effect, which makes our cooking a lot easier
full functioning

Cast iron pans include frying pans, frying pans, stew pans, steak pans, seafood pans, baking pans, etc., which can be used with gas, induction cookers, and ovens (microwave ovens cannot be used), which can meet all the requirements for pans in the kitchen. It is recommended to choose a Chinese wok, a frying pan and a saucepan for daily use at home.

Non-stick pan

One of the biggest headaches for many people in the process of using the pot is sticking the pot. If the cast iron pot is used correctly, it will be completely non-sticky, and the more you use it, the better it will be. The inner wall of the enamel pot is smooth, the adhesion of food coking and carbonization is reduced a lot, the non-stick effect is very good, and it is easy to clean. Cast iron pans without enamel need to be boiled the first time they are used. After the pot is opened, a thin layer of grease will be adsorbed on the surface, which not only protects the pot from rust but also has a non-stick effect. Do not use detergent or steel wool after each use.
Heat evenly, good heat preservation

The cast iron pot is evenly heated, has good heat preservation, and the temperature in the pot is relatively stable. As long as people are not left for a long time without turning off the fire, there will be no sticking of the pot. It is especially suitable for novices who can’t master the heat, and they will almost never fail in cooking. Because the heat preservation is excellent, the dishes are not easy to cool, especially in winter, when you need to cook on the stove after a pot of soup is cooked, you will not worry about reheating when it cools down when you drink it. During the cooking process, keep the pot on medium heat after heating, turn off the heat before putting the salt and use the residual temperature to complete the final processing of the food, which is energy-saving and environmentally friendly

Good sealing

The stew pot has good airtightness. The lid is heavy and tight with the pot body, which has a strong airtightness. The inner wall of the lid has a self-circulating water drop design. The entire lid is like a shower. The water vapor condenses on the lid evenly and then falls back into the pot, so that the water does not circulate in the pot, which ensures the original taste of the food and reduces Nutrient loss. When stewing the meat, it can retain the moisture of the ingredients to make it soft and rotten, but only a small amount of water is needed to make the soup rich and mellow.

So how should it be maintained?

1. Open the pan when using it for the first time, and wipe the inner wall of the pan several times with the fatty skin.
2. Be careful not to cook acidic food in a cast iron pot, because metal will chemically react with acid.
3. After each use, wipe the moisture on the surface with a paper towel or rag to prevent rust; you can also apply a layer of edible oil on the surface to maintain it.

Therefore, on the whole, the cast iron pot is worth starting with. Having said that, many people are beginning to struggle again. There are so many brands of cast iron pots on the market, how should one choose? How to choose a useful cast iron pot?
