My husband has just relocated his cast iron skillet, but it looks like it was never cleaned the last time he cooked in it. He has put dawn detergent and water in it and boiled it but it is still just a thick sludge that won't budge. Is this skillet hopeless or will a little bit of elbow grease help? Any other "tricks" would be greatly appreciated.

I recently purchased a cast iron skillet. I've seasoned it according to the directions and have used it about half a dozen times. It's great for foods that can be stirred, like scrambled eggs.
However, when I cook something that can't be stirred--such as pancakes or quesadillas--the food in the center of the pan burns, while the food near the edges remains undercooked. I thought that even heating was an advantage of cast iron cookware, so I'm baffled. I've tried using low heat, high heat, more oil, less oil; none of that helps. My spouse is about to toss the new skillet and go back to the nonstick. Any ideas?

Yes you can but avoid sliding cookware across the stovetop as it will scratch the surface. Avoid soft aluminum and copper pots and pans as it can fuse onto the stovetop surface. Clean stovetop with soft abrasive as Bon Ami.http://web1.msue.msu.edu/imp/mod02/01500...

My wife bought me a cast iron skillet a while ago and is upset that I have not yet used it. I like to cook, but I have never really used cast iron. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Cast Iron Pan With Rust Safe For Cooking?

Ok, I accidentally let my cast iron pan sit in the sink for a while and when I pulled it out I found a little bit of rust on it. Not much, but it definitely is there. I don't want the pan to be unusable, but is it safe?
