Seasoning the Lodge L8SK3 1/4-Inch Pre-Seasoned Skillet is a simple process. The skillet comes pre-seasoned with soy vegetable oil, but seasoning is an ongoing process that improves with each use. To maintain and enhance the seasoning, follow these steps:
1. Before the first use, rinse the skillet with water and dry it thoroughly.
2. Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the entire surface of the skillet, including the handle.
3. Place the skillet upside down in an oven preheated to 350°F (175°C).
4. Bake the skillet for one hour, then turn off the oven and let it cool down inside.
5. Repeat this seasoning process whenever the skillet starts to lose its non-stick properties or develops rust spots.
Remember to avoid using dishwashers, metal scouring pads, and harsh detergents, as they can harm the seasoning. Instead, hand wash the skillet with mild soap or none at all, and dry it promptly and thoroughly with a lint-free cloth or paper towel. After each use, rub a very light layer of vegetable oil onto the skillet to maintain its seasoning.
