Cast iron cooking isn’t just a trend—it’s a timeless way to make meals that feel rustic, rich, and satisfying. At Crovora, we believe anyone can master cast iron, and this guide is here to walk you through every step—from seasoning to sizzling. Let’s make cast iron simple, rewarding, and part of your everyday routine.
All of our cast iron cookware comes pre-seasoned and ready to go. At our foundry, we coat each piece with natural vegetable oil and bake it to create a protective, nonstick layer right out of the box.
Once it’s home, give it a quick rinse, dry it well, and start cooking. From frying eggs to searing steaks, every use deepens the seasoning layer, naturally boosting performance over time.

Crovora cast iron works beautifully on any heat source—gas, induction, oven, or open fire. Just keep in mind that cast iron holds heat longer, so you can cook more efficiently at lower settings.
Preheat your skillet before adding food, and start with medium heat. Trust us: your eggs, pancakes, and steaks will thank you.
After cooking, allow your pan to cool and then hand-wash with warm water and a gentle brush. A little dish soap is okay, but avoid soaking.
For stubborn messes, simmer water in the pan for 3–5 minutes to loosen food, then use a scraper once it cools. Dry thoroughly and rub in a light layer of oil before storing.
With regular use, your skillet will naturally improve—but you can always boost its performance with a quick oven seasoning.
Apply a thin layer of oil, place the skillet upside down in the oven at 400°F (200°C), and bake for an hour. Do this every few months or whenever the surface looks dull or uneven.
