Resilient Cast Iron
The Scottish scone pan is pre-seasoned. “Seasoning” is vegetable oil baked onto the iron at a high temperature: not a chemical non-stick coating. The more you cook, the better it gets. Because you create, maintain, and even repair the seasoning, your cookware can last forever. Chemical non-stick coating cannot be repaired, limiting lifespan. Use a little extra oil, butter or shortening for the first few times making scones or cornbread, until you’ve built up the seasoning.
Cast iron is right at home on induction, ceramic, electric and gas cooktops, in your oven, on the grill, even on the campfire.
Do not use the microwave oven. Hand wash. Dry immediately. Rub with a light coat of vegetable oil after every wash.
