What is a cast iron pan?

Cast iron pans are cast from iron. A cast iron pan has no artificial coating and is classic, traditional cookware. Cast iron pans can be used for frying at high temperatures, making them particularly suitable for searing and braising meat.

Anyone who knows the true value of a cast iron pan will not want to miss out on the incomparable taste of the food cooked in it.

Why is a cast iron pan so good?

Many amateur and professional chefs who have discovered cast iron as the ideal material for their pan appreciate the incomparable frying experience and will never give up their cast iron pan.

Why is that? Cast iron is made for particularly high temperatures and retains heat for a long time, so meat, for example, can continue to cook after frying without the need for an additional heat source. In addition, the inherent flavor of food prepared in cast iron pans is optimally preserved. This makes dishes taste much more intense, which is generally referred to as a characteristic taste. The cast iron pan's versatility is also what makes it so good: it can be used not only for frying and braising, but also for baking pies, tarts and cakes.

The quality of a cast iron pan increases over time, as the patina that forms protects the pan and makes it more robust. You can use it anywhere: in the oven, on all types of stoves and over an open fire. If you look after it well, it will last forever.

What can a cast iron pan be used for?

You can prepare anything you like in a cast iron pan. Whether vegetables, fish, meat or colorful pan-fried dishes, there are no limits. Whether you use it in the oven, at home or on the go, it is perfect for frying and reheating or for baking sweet or savory cakes.

The grill fire pan offers the best conditions for that special roasted taste, as it is also equipped with grooves that create the typical grill marks and allow food liquids to drain away. You should only refrain from preparing acidic foods for the first few uses so that the valuable patina can develop unhindered.

How do I use a cast iron pan?

Using a cast iron pan is not very different from using conventional pans. In contrast to coated pans, however, it forms its own protective layer: the patina. This patina is valuable because it gives the cast iron pan its natural non-stick properties. To maintain this, it is important to clean the cast iron pan without using washing-up liquid. Food residues can be removed with a dishwashing brush, the Petromax ring cleaner or the scraper for fire pots and pans, which is also available with grooves to fit the cast iron grill pan perfectly.

From time to time, the pan should be re-greased with Petromax Care Paste for Cast and Wrought Iron and always stored in a dry place.

Are cast iron pans coated?

The term "coating" often refers to properties that prevent food from sticking. This is the case with the cast iron pan, but there is no coating here. The non-stick effect forms naturally all by itself and is known as patina.

Which is the best cast iron pan?

Cast iron pans are available in various designs. The reason is obvious: dishes prepared in cast iron pans are hard to beat in terms of taste and they also have many other advantages. Nevertheless, there are differences - especially when it comes to the naturalness of the material.

Pure cast iron pans are the most natural way to prepare food. If you are looking for a sustainable and durable product and natural product properties are important to you, you should consider a cast iron pan without an artificial coating such as the Petromax Fire Skillet.

The Petromax Grill Fire Skillet is best suited for a real roasting experience over an open fire or on the stove. The grooves of the Grill Fire Skillet provide the typical roasting stripes and allow food liquids to run off, so you have an unmistakable grilling taste from the pan and an unhindered grilling experience, regardless of the season.

All Petromax cast iron pans are traditionally manufactured without mechanical coating. Find out which of the Petromax fire pans is the best for you.

What is the best steak pan?

Medium or rare? That's the question in a steakhouse - with a steak pan, the question is more likely to be: seared or with roasted strips? You can decide whether medium or rare later. So if you want to experience pure grilled and roasted flavor, then your choice should fall on a grill pan like the Petromax grill fire pan.

If short and hot searing for a crispy roasting result is what makes your heart beat faster, then a wrought iron pan, such as the Petromax wrought iron pan, is just right for you. Both can be used over an open fire as well as on all types of stoves.
