if you clean you pan right after cooking by putting hot water in the pan, the hot water takes any crust off almost immediately. if there's still some sticking scrape it off with a wooden spatula or let the water simmer a bit more on the stove. after that i just use a kitchen sponge to wipe off...

hi allen, my pan is 12 inch and yes my glass top ring is not quite big enough so i can actually see a ring on my pan where the electric ring is . yes i think i will have to do as you suggested and season it every now and then in the oven to build up the seasoning again.

good idea! i didn't think of that

hmmm. i have been using a metal spatula for the last month or so cos i read somewhere that using metal sometimes roundoff the seasoning and evens it out. i did season it again in the oven for second time that's why i thought metal would be fine on it and because of second seasoning didn't think...

thanks mudbug! i'm so glad i don't have to scrub the pan out cos my husband already thinks i fuss over the pan too much and threatens to throw it in the bin! lol

but i do remember cooking a small roast and fill pan half way with stock. don't know if that might have cost the splotches

no nothing of that sort as i know i need the pan very well season to do that and pan is only 3 monts old

your pan looks like that too. that's not normal though is it? so should i just leave it or scrub it out and reseason?

yes, i do dry over heat and try to look after it well like always warm up on low then turn heat higher, always oil after washing and dry well so how come the pan's seasoning is coming off?

hi everyone, i ask a question last week regarding what's happened to my pan and someone said to post a picture up. i tried to clean it with salt like someone suggested but it didn't get rid of the splotches. does it look like the factory season is coming off. is it safe to cook with and why am...

oh no i don't ever let the pan get too hot. what i meant was if i left the pan on 2 for say an hour on my electric stove it would definitely start burning whereas if i did that on the gas stove it would just remain on that temperature. i have only noticed that withe the cast iron. other pans do...

i had a really good look at the pan yestersday and it looked disgusting. it's even started to spread to the sidewalls so i can only assume that the seasoning is coming off cos it's a much lighter shade. but i don't understand why the pan still works. robo suggested i try cleaning it out with...

robo, do i have to do it with the pan hot or cold?

ah! i think i like this solution. better than scraping my 3 months of seasoning hard work off. i shall give this a try robo 410. thanks

sugar in the pan?? i beleive goodweed meant sugar in the bacon. no?:rofl:
