Cast Iron Cookware Cleaner

Coarse salt scrubs cast iron cookware clean without soap, preserving the seasoning that keeps it non-stick.

What you'll need

Steps

  1. While the pan is still warm, sprinkle salt over the surface.
  2. Scrub with a cloth and a splash of warm water.
  3. Rinse, dry immediately, and rub with a thin layer of oil.
Tip: Skip soap entirely on cast iron — it strips the seasoning built up over years of cooking.
