My Husband bought these little cast iron skillets and my first reaction was not so positive when I read that you can’t wash then with detergent. But now I absolutely love them. You clean them with water and salt then dry them over a stove flame. Otherwise they will start to rust. It’s very fast to cook with because it gets incredibly hot, and also you don’t need a lot of oil. Which is always good.
Spicy Home Fries
- Sweet Potatoes
- White Potatoes
- Yellow peppers
- Chopped onions
- Garlic
- Salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- Crushed red pepper flakes
First I roasted all the vegetables (in a 400 F oven) together with all the seasonings. Then in the cast iron skillet place the home fries around the edges, leaving enough space for one egg in the center (or two that’s up to you). And also, you can roast the vegetables in the day before to make the all morning process easier.

We had the same problems with our steel woks,
You shouldn´t use a detergent, as they get an unique taste.
We just clean them with water and then put a bit of cooking oil on a kitchen paper and rub the steel, that prevents rust, if You don´t use it for a while.
