cast iron pan
Weighty cooking vessel
A cast iron pan is a heavy cooking vessel made from iron cast in a mold, prized for heat retention and even cooking.
These pans develop a nonstick surface through seasoning—layers of oil baked into the metal.
My grandmother's cast iron pan is still going strong after sixty years.
Cast iron requires specific care: no soap, dry thoroughly, oil after use.
