Erste Verwendung

1. Upon receiving your cast iron skillets, wash them thoroughly with warm water and a mild soap.

4. Place the oiled skillets upside down in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for one hour. Place aluminum foil on the bottom rack to catch any drips.
5. Turn off the oven and allow the skillets to cool completely inside the oven. This process helps to reinforce the pre-seasoned layer.

3. Wipe off any excess oil with a paper towel until the surface appears dry.
4. Place the skillet upside down in a preheated oven at 450°F (232°C) for one hour.
