FAQs
Can I use this on an induction hob?
Yes, this skillet is fully compatible with induction surfaces.
Is this skillet dishwasher safe?
No, you must hand-wash this skillet to maintain the seasoning and prevent rust.
Why is my pan turning grey?
A grey color indicates that the seasoning layer is wearing off. Simply re-season the pan to restore the protective surface.
What is the best way to store the pan?
Store in a cool, dry place. Using the hanging hole is ideal, or store it in a dry cupboard with a paper towel between it and other pans.
Can I use metal utensils with this pan?
Yes, cast iron is durable enough for metal utensils, though they may gradually wear down the seasoning layer over time.
Troubleshooting
Food is sticking to the surface
The pan needs more seasoning. Clean the pan, apply a thin layer of oil, and heat it until the oil polymerizes.
Rust spots appearing on the surface
Scrub the rusted area with a steel wool pad, wash, dry, and immediately re-season the pan.
Pan feels sticky after seasoning
This is likely due to using too much oil. Wipe the pan clean with a paper towel and heat it longer to burn off the excess oil.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before the first use, the skillet should be thoroughly washed with warm water (avoid harsh detergents) and dried completely. To achieve the best performance, apply a light coat of high-smoke point oil and heat the pan in an oven or on the stove until the oil smokes, then wipe off the excess. This seasoning process should be repeated as needed. For cleaning, always wash by hand with a stiff brush or chainmail scrubber, dry immediately over low heat to prevent rust, and lightly oil the surface before storage. This skillet is safe to use on any stovetop including induction hobs.
