Cast iron is a traditional, excellent material thanks to which the dishes prepared over open fire gain excellent flavour and aroma, as well as retain more nutritional value beneficial to health. In order for the cast iron cookware to serve you for a long time in its best condition, it is necessary to adhere to certain rules. 

How to use: 

Cast iron cauldron requires seasoning prior to the first use. To this end, the cauldron needs to be smeared thoroughly with oil, filled with water placed on a lit bonfire, closed, and left to cook for about 30 minutes. Afterwards, leave the cauldron to cool down. Meanwhile, wash its walls carefully with hot water using a cloth on a stick or a wooden ladle (Caution! The cauldron will be very hot!). Another method for seasoning the cauldron is pouring 1 L of oil into it and season it on fire for 30 minutes. During this process the oil will change its colour. Please note! While seasoning the cauldron using this method, never add more oil or any water to it! Meanwhile, the seasoning process should be kept under constant control and the cauldron should not be left unattended as oil may flow out from it and catch fire.

In order to maintain the cauldron properly, after each use it should be washed thoroughly and a teaspoon of edible oil should be spread on its inner surface. Never leave the cauldron empty over a heat source and never subject it to sudden changes in temperature. Cast iron is very vulnerable to major temperature differences. 

The cauldron should be heated up gradually - if the temperature is too high, the cast iron will become brittle and may break. Hot cast iron must not be poured over with cold water. This will result in thermal shock and resulting breakage of the cauldron. It is also not recommended to use detergents for washing it – it is best to wash cast iron with water only. It is allowed to use some sand or salt, which will help get rid of soiling, rust stains or burns that are harder to remove.
