FAQs

Is this griddle pan truly non-stick?

The griddle pan is pre-seasoned with natural vegetable oil, creating a naturally non-stick surface. Its non-stick quality improves with continued use and proper seasoning maintenance. It is not coated with synthetic non-stick chemicals.

How do I clean cast iron without damaging the seasoning?

Clean with hot water and a stiff brush or non-abrasive sponge. Avoid dish soap or abrasive scrubbers. Always dry thoroughly immediately after washing and apply a light coat of oil before storing.

Can I use this on an induction cooktop?

Yes, the Taylor & Brown Cast Iron Griddle Pan is compatible with all hob types, including induction, gas, electric, and ceramic.

Is it safe to put this griddle pan in the oven?

Yes, the griddle pan is fully oven safe, allowing you to transfer dishes from stovetop to oven.

What is the best way to store my cast iron griddle pan?

Store the pan in a dry location. To prevent moisture buildup and protect the surface, you can place a paper towel between the griddle and any lid or other cookware stacked on top of it.

Do I need to season it again after I buy it?

The pan comes pre-seasoned. However, regular cooking with oils and fats, along with occasional re-seasoning as per care instructions, will enhance and maintain its non-stick properties and protect against rust.

What kind of oil should I use for seasoning?

Vegetable oil, canola oil, or flaxseed oil are good choices for seasoning cast iron. Apply a very thin layer and wipe off any excess.

Troubleshooting

Food sticking to the surface

Ensure the pan is adequately preheated before adding food. Make sure a sufficient amount of cooking oil or fat is used. If sticking persists, the seasoning may need to be re-established.

Pan has developed rust spots

Scrub the rusted areas with steel wool or a scouring pad to remove all rust. Wash and dry the pan thoroughly. Re-season the entire pan with a thin layer of cooking oil.

Uneven cooking or hot spots

Ensure the pan is preheated evenly over a consistent heat source. Try adjusting the heat source to distribute heat more uniformly. Cast iron naturally retains heat, so allow it time to reach a stable temperature.

Pan feels rough or gritty

This might be a buildup of food or residue. Scrub gently with hot water and a brush. If it persists, consider a light re-seasoning process.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup:

Your Taylor & Brown Cast Iron Griddle Pan comes pre-seasoned, ready for immediate use. For the first few uses, it's recommended to cook foods with higher oil content (like bacon) to further build the seasoning. Always preheat the pan gradually over medium-low heat before increasing the temperature for cooking.

Compatibility:

This griddle pan is compatible with all standard hob types:

  • Induction
  • Gas
  • Electric
  • Ceramic

It is also fully oven safe, allowing for versatile cooking methods.

Care and Maintenance:

Proper care is essential for cast iron to prevent rust and maintain its non-stick properties.

  1. Cleaning: After use, clean the pan while it is still warm (but not hot) with hot water and a stiff brush or non-abrasive sponge. Avoid using harsh detergents or metal scouring pads, as these can strip the seasoning.
  2. Drying: Immediately and thoroughly dry the pan with a lint-free cloth or paper towel. Placing it on a low heat for a few minutes can ensure all moisture is evaporated.
  3. Seasoning: Apply a very thin layer of cooking oil (like vegetable or canola oil) to the entire surface of the pan. Wipe away any excess oil with a clean cloth. This light oil coating protects against rust and helps maintain the non-stick finish.
  4. Storage: Store the pan in a dry place. Placing a paper towel between stacked pans can prevent moisture buildup and scratches.
