How do I Season Carbon Steel?Updated 10 months ago

Cooking fatty proteins or with oils will continue to develop a seasoning over time. For your first seasoning, we recommend:

  • Heat the pan on the stovetop on low-medium heat
  • Apply an oil with a high smoke point between 400-475F like grapeseed oil or our seasoning wax
  • Rub the oil into the pan using tongs and a paper towel or kitchen rag
  • Let cool and repeat 2-3 times for a more thorough initial seasoning

For more information on seasoning, visit our Seasoning Guide or view our videos on seasoning on your stovetop and in the oven.
