In addition to a good insect repellent, a cast iron dutch oven should accompany each camp out. Come on, what can you cook in a Dutch oven NO? You have your breakfast muffin, Bar-B-Que, game hens, biscuits, cabbage, Creole, cobbler, corn bread, cakes and about 5000 types of stews. Cast iron cookware is usually the choice for true campers. Although it does not work well with backpack for the victories of the camper or boot camp, Dutch oven hands down. I would bet that everyone readingknows that a grandmother of cast iron used for baking. It 's all an art lost on most, but for those who know how to cast iron cookware care, is also used to cook at home every day.
And this is what this article is about ... take care of your Dutch oven (or cast as a whole)
The first and most important thing you need to know about your Dutch oven is to get and keep a good "seasoning (or seasoning). If you do it the right way your food will never stick and your plate will never beRust. If you season cast iron, you are the pores of the metal with grease of some sort, which in turn will burn on the surface a non-stick inside and outside of the pot. If you notice, begin the cast, rust, or food begins to stick, it's time to properly clean and re-season. And just as with modern non-stick cookware, Dutch ovens have special attention. So here are some things to keep in mind
1. Never use cold water on a hotPot - you bust it.
2. Let marinate for other than cast iron, or put in the dishwasher. Get it in soapy water, rinse and dry immediately with a paper towel.
3. Place your pot on a hot stove, if it is dry, and clean with a light coat of vegetable oil, Crisco, lard, ... etc.
4. Go to "absorb" the heat of the Dutch oven in oil. Then remove excess grease with paper towels.
5. Keep you can remove moisture moisture cover.Even a couple of paper towels was inside.
If your cast iron always starts small rust spots, scour the areas with steel wool, until all traces are gone, washed, dried and re-season. If too much oil in the process of seasoning paste will be used on swimming pools in the pan. It must be scraped out, heated, and again wiped out. . Heating the pan to the head can avoid this block - but protect your oven with a cookie sheet or aluminum foil to catch the fat. Then again, weCamping here we are not? Just throw on the fire and go to some marshmallows.
So there you have it. In a cast iron Dutch oven care has been taken the wrong way, you can pass to your grandchildren to be there for the camping pressure. You could also go more than a dozen pots and pans in front of this modern tank-of-the-kitchen set flinch.
As an active Scout Leader, I'd like a place I have to invite along on the adventures and lessons on camping ... "Camping and More"
