Recently i have been looking for a new cookware to make my dishes look more interesting, perhaps look like those prepared from restaurant dining. Anyway, i added this new tools into my kitchen — Cast Iron Skillet, to create those grill marks effect on the steak, wings and pork chops. However, it requires a bit of knowledge on how to seasoning the cast iron on the first time and every time after cooking. According to the reading, cast iron skillet is recognized as the safest cookware compare to those coating with non-stick layers. The life span could be last forever if the seasoning process is done correctly.
I found some good price chicken wings on store, so, this is the time i do some grill wings. However, i just use the cast iron skillet for grill marks and i let the oven complete the whole cooking. For health concerned, i just trying not to let the wings over burn on the cast iron skillet.
