How do you season a carbon steel frying pan?

To season a carbon steel frying pan, clean it thoroughly, apply a thin layer of oil, and heat it until the oil smokes. This process should be repeated several times to build a protective, non-stick layer.

Why do chefs prefer carbon steel frying pans?

Chefs prefer carbon steel frying pans for their versatility, durability, and ability to achieve high temperatures quickly. They are perfect for a variety of cooking techniques, from frying to baking.

How do you clean and maintain a carbon steel frying pan?

Clean a carbon steel frying pan with hot water and a soft sponge. Avoid using soap or abrasive materials. After cleaning, dry it thoroughly and apply a light coat of oil to prevent rust.

Will a carbon steel frying pan rust, and how can you prevent it?

Yes, a carbon steel frying pan can rust if not properly maintained. To prevent rust, ensure the pan is completely dry after washing and regularly season it with oil to maintain its protective layer.
