You can create a perfect non-sticky surface on cast iron pans like this: - clean well with strong soap and a metal sponge until it's one smooth silver surface - put a few drops of flax oil on a paper and rub the pan with it (also inner sides) - take off all excessive oil with a dry kitchen paper - remove any non-metal handles from the pan - open your windows - heat your oven to the max and put the pan in for about 20 minutes - repeat about 5 times After using the pan, wipe with a kitchen paper. Maybe a little bit of warm water, better not. Never any soap.
