I have a great treat for you today! I’m sharing a delicious recipe for a white pizza. It is Asiago Mushroom & Onion White Skillet Pizza. It gets even more special, I’ve gathered some of the best cast iron skillet recipes from great bloggers and they are here to share the recipes, tips and why they love cooking in cast iron skillets.

You probably noticed that I’ve been sharing more and more cast iron skillet recipes lately. That is because I’m in love with my skillet. I honestly don’t know what in the world took me so long to get my own cast iron skillet. I remember my grandmothers having skillets and they cooked in them all the time. When I was young, I was intimidated by cast iron skillets, so I used regular cooking pans. I guess that a cast iron skillet would be intimidating to an 11 year old, not to mention heavy.

Well, now I braved a skillet and I am not giving it up. Cast iron skillets are great to have for everyone:

~They are practically indestructible and last for ages.

~ They are non-stick, as long as they are seasoned properly.

~They can be seasoned as often as needed.

~ They are great for light cooking because they don’t require much oil once seasoned.

~My favorite: you can use it to cook practically anything! Baking, saute, sear, stir-fry or fry. Use it to make dessert and savory dishes.

~Cast iron skillets heat through perfectly and evenly and therefore cook food evenly.

And of course…

Use it in self-defense!

Seasoning Your Cast Iron Skillet:

Before using your skillet for the first time, you need to season it. This simply means, coating it with a thin layer of oil and then baking it it. You are filling all the little pores with oil and creating a non-stick surface. Although, there is a little more to this process and you should do it properly.

First, rub the skillet with oil (vegetable, sunflower or canola) using a paper-towel to create a thin layer of oil. Just a thin layer, so the pan is dry but shiny with oil. Next, preheat the oven to 450 and place the skillet in the oven for about 30 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the skillet cool to room temperature (don’t take it out). You can repeat the seasoning process as often as you need to.

Cleaning and Drying Your Skillet:

Cast Iron Skillets should be washed very quickly, just to take off the surface oil and food leftovers. Rinse with a soft sponge and warm water, and dry thoroughly. Do not soak it or run it through the dishwasher! When it’s time to deep clean your skillet, check out this articles from The Kitchn.
