How do I prevent my Carbon Steel Cookware from rusting?Updated 7 days ago
To prevent rust, make sure your pan is properly seasoned. Check out our step-by-step seasoning tutorial by visiting the Carbon Steel Use & Care Page.
After the implementation of this method, we recommend following these simple care instructions to ensure that your Carbon Steel Pan stays rust-free:
- Hand wash clean - If a quick wipe doesn’t clean your pan, wash with a little water and a non-abrasive scrubber.
- Do not use the dishwasher - It’ll strip your seasoning layers, and you’ll have to start seasoning your pan again from scratch.
- Keep it protected - If you used water to clean your pan, add a tiny bit of oil to the warmed pan after fully drying. Rub it into the cooking surface, wipe off excess (like you did when first seasoning), and store.
