Why the number "10"? - Our cookware uses traditional American cast iron sizing metrics dating back to the 1800s. The numbers correlate to the size of ports on antique wood stoves as cast iron cookware and wood stoves often went hand in hand. The number 10 is traditionally a top diameter 11.5" skillet.

First Time Use

Your skill is preseasoned and ready to use in your kitchen. Use extra cooking oil and avoid cooking acidic foods like tomato sauce and white wine for the first dozen meals.

Continued Care

After cooking, wipe it out with a paper towel. Rinse off and dry the skillet thoroughly. If food is stuck, use soapy water and chainmail to clean.

Your skillet will darken as the seasoning builds and the cooking surface will feel as smooth as glass. If your skillet looks blotchy or seasoning comes off, keep using it! It will improve with time, heat, and oil.
