Review on Cuisinel Cast Iron Pizza Pan / Round Griddle - 13.5-Inch Flat Skillet - Pre-Seasoned Comal 🍕 for Tortillas - Versatile Cooking: Frozen Pizza, Dosa, Roti - Stove, Oven, Grill, BBQ and Campfire Safe by Michael Reddy

Beautiful cast iron skillet. It is difficult. yes it is cast iron. Will rust. yes, if not treated properly. If you drop him on his leg, he will break his leg. probably. So if you want something that is lightweight, can be mishandled, not maintained and if you fall it won't break your leg then cast iron isn't for you. The pan comes pre-seasoned but has a rough surface for cooking. After several seasonings, it became much softer. I season it by rubbing it with a layer of vegetable oil and putting it in the oven at 450 degrees. It will smell a little, maybe even smoke a little. After 30 minutes or more, I take the pan out and wipe it down with a paper towel. If it's still rough to the touch, brush it with oil and reheat it. In the end it becomes smooth as glass. But most (if not all) of these pre-seasoned cast iron pans are. The minimum amount of preseason, so it can be called preseason. And most (if not all) would benefit from more spices. For this reason, many cast iron pans are advertised as "getting better with time". So don't let the need for seasoning keep you from buying this, you'll have to do it with almost every cast iron skillet you buy. How is she preparing? Big. The pizza crust is nicely toasted and crispy. Everyone loved the crust so much they wanted "pizza" that was just the crust. So I made homemade bread cooked in this pan and it was great. I look forward to trying other things on it in the future. The cleaning was pretty easy, I do what some would say don't clean, I wash with soap and water (soap!), rinse, dry and re-oil and pop in a 450 for about 30 minutes degree oven. let it cool and ripen from excess oil. When properly aged the oil turns into a layer of carbon that protects the pan from water (which is why aged cast iron does not rust) and cleaning is required to remove it, a light washing with soap and water will not affect these . It is the layer of charcoal that makes the cast iron non-stick, not the layer of oil that floats on top of the pan. I have cast iron pans that have a hint of rust on the bottom but no rust on top (I'm not worried about seasoning the bottom of the pans as much as the top). I bought two and am very happy with both. I would buy again if I ever need one again.
