- Is it really pre-seasoned?
- Yes. Lodge seasons it at the factory with vegetable oil, so you can cook on it right away. The surface improves as you keep using it.
- Will it work on my induction or glass-top stove?
- Yes. Cast iron is magnetic, so it works on induction, and the flat base sits fine on smooth glass and electric coil tops.
- How do I clean it?
- Hand wash with warm water and a stiff brush, dry it fully on the stove, then rub in a thin layer of oil. Skip soap and the dishwasher.
- Is the square shape better than a round skillet?
- It gives more cooking area for the same width and pours from the corners. Round pans are easier for tossing and swirling.
- Can it go in the oven?
- Yes, the whole pan is cast iron with no plastic parts, so it is oven safe at any normal baking temperature.
- Does it come with a lid?
- No. It is sold as the skillet alone, and Lodge's square lids are sold separately.
- Where is the Lodge Logic L8SQ3 10.5-Inch Square Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron Skillet with Integrated Handles cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $24.90, as of our latest check.
