Okay, so you are in documented danger of grandmotherly violence from beyond the grave, but I found this oddly reassuring! Could I do anything WORSE to my cast iron pans?? Doubtful! And if I did, which would be impressive, I can always just re-season, which is just oil + oven time.
You're awesome dude. You should be arrested and hit over the head with that orange cast iron pan. My great grandma is rolling over in her cast iron casket! I linked to your 'Stack in my latest post! Hope you get some reader-bleed over. Blood Pudding maybe? thanks
The red stuff is iron oxide- rust- probably keep you from becoming anemic. 😉
I had a roommate do this to my pan back in 2003 and I determined to never have a roommate again.
It did enable me to put "refurbished cast-iron pan" on my resume, though.
I don't know what made my mouth drop more, the first dishwashing (NOOOOOO!!!) or the fact that I have the same plates as the world's greatest chef.
