SEASONING OF EGGS PAN

 A common cry during Breakfast in the kitchen is “Who washed my egg pans?” Water destroys a seasoned surface, and cooking a hamburger or anything else in an egg pan causes the same frustration. Egg pans should be used for eggs only! A porous cooking surface is a nightmare for an egg cook, and a seasoned or primed surface is necessary. A seasoned surface is one that has been polished at high heat with salt and fat to overcome its porousness.


Follow these steps: -Heat the pan on a hot fire.
Add a few drops of oil and a handful of salt.
Rub the salt and the oil with a cloth vigorously with pressure into the surface as though you are scouring it with a cleanser.
Discard the salt and oil mixture and wipe the pan clean with a cloth
Repeat until you can cook an egg without it sticking anywhere
in the pan.
