Sastro Quality Design Dutch Pot Cookware Sets Cast Iron Cookware Set  (1 - Piece)

Place the pan over a burner and let it preheat for five minutes or so, rotating it now and then. Always set a timer so that you don’t forget that you have it on the burner. To test for readiness drop a couple of drops of water in the pan. The water should pop and sizzle. If the water immediately evaporates the pan is too hot. You can also heat cast iron pans and Dutch ovens in a hot oven for 20 to 30 minutes, again setting the timer
