9 inch Cast Iron Skillet

by Nest Homeware
Sold out
$160

Most valuable, most versatile, most comfortable. Steak and eggs to apple pie - our 9in Skillet can do it all. And the lid from our Dutch Oven will fit here as well. This cookware has actually been designed with ergonomics in mind, and it shows. 

The handle on the 9in Skillet has been called the most comfortable available on a cast iron skillet, meticulously sculpted to fit both left and right hands of every size. More length makes for better balance, and also keeps things cooler for longer.

The interiors of cast iron cookware from Nest Homeware are machined smooth, which makes for an incredible cooking experience. Each handle captures the gesture of a branch from a cherry tree, abstracted into a form that's pleasing to the eyes and the hands.

How can I season my cast iron cookware?

The best thing to do is start cooking!

Because cooking always involves the use of oils and fats, multiple interlocking layers of seasoning will build up over time on your cookware as you cook, further protecting it from rust, and improving performance. To that end, there is some amount of seasoning that is passive - it simply happens as you cook!

You can also spend dedicated time just seasoning your pan as well. Follow these steps:

1. Wash your pan and dry it completely.

2. Apply a very thin coat of oil to your pan (you can use flax seed, grape seed, coconut, or even canola). Wipe up all of the excess oil and place the pan in your oven upside down.

3. Turn your oven on, and set the temperature to 400ºF, allowing the pan to slowly heat with the oven. When the oven reaches 400ºF, bake for 1 hour.

4. Turn your oven off, and let your pan cool down slowly and naturally inside.

Benefits from a good cleaning and seasoning routine to keep it performing its best.

Should be cleaned with hot water and a stiff nylon brush, sponge, or scrubby cloth..

Should never be cleaned in the dishwasher or soaked for a long period of time.

Can actually be cleaned with soap from time to time, even though some people are vehemently against it.

Can rust if it's not properly seasoned or if it's not dried after washing. Immediately after your cookware is dry, but still warm, add a few drops of oil and use a paper towel to lightly coat the entire interior. Oil protects the cast iron pan from rust and adds to its seasoning.
