Frequently Asked Questions▼
Is the inside enameled or bare cast iron?
The colored enamel is on the exterior and handle only. The interior cooking surface is bare pre-seasoned cast iron, so you season and care for it like traditional cast iron.
Can I put it in the dishwasher?
No. Hand wash only. Rinse with hot water, dry thoroughly, and rub a thin layer of oil into the interior to keep the seasoning and prevent rust.
Does it work on an induction cooktop?
Yes. Cast iron is magnetic, so it works on induction as well as gas, electric, and ceramic-glass stovetops, plus the oven.
How hot can it go in the oven?
It is oven safe up to 500F (260C), so you can move it straight from the stovetop to the oven.
Does the handle get hot?
Yes. The handle is solid enameled cast iron with no silicone grip and heats up during cooking, so always use a pot holder or handle cover.
What size is it and how many does it serve?
It measures 8 inches across, ideal for one to two servings, frying eggs, reheating, or preparing a small side dish.
