I’ve always been scared to clean my cast iron pan with fear that it might scratch or take away the flavor it adds to my meals. Usually I just give it a rinse under the faucet and a little swipe with a paper towel, but I always wondered if there were a better way to go about it.

That’s when I discovered this helpful video! By taking one ingredient that I guarantee you already have on hand, you can give your cast iron pan that deep clean it needs, without ruining the surface. This method even ADDS flavor to the dish!

Do you know what this secret ingredient is? SALT! Yep, it’s that easy…just sprinkle a little salt and get rubbing away. Soon enough you’ll have a cast iron pan looking brand spankin’ new!
