Hey guys, I have finally decided to ditch the non-stick cookware and bought a lodge cast iron skillet. I used it this morning to make bacon and eggs. I used about a tablespoon avocado oil and three rashers of bacon. The eggs still stuck horribly. The bacon was fine and didn’t stick.
What is the secret of cooking (eggs) in cast iron? WIll this improve as the skillet gets conditioned? I just washed it and used it. I must say that afterwards clean up wasn’t as horrible as I imagined, and after I washed and dried I rubbed it with olive oil to condition it. Should I do something else? Use even more fat?
I did like the crispyness that resulted from the frying. Tasted way better than eggs from non-stick. Just a different mouth feel.
You cast iron gurus - enlighten me.
