The amount of disgusting freaks that don't know you need to wash this and reapply the seasoning with oil in the oven is insane to me.
Needs washed, but you can just heat the oil on the stove if you've seasoned the thing in the first place.
I learned from a chef that an oven would work better due to the even heat applied all over but in a pinch or if you don't want to do all that, the stove top could be fine.
That's the main reason I do an oven seasoning once a year or so. With my electric stove, it'll get the bottom ripping hot while the sides won't ever quite catch up.
In the oven I can do an even, set 450-500 and hold it there as long as I like. Then I can shut it off and let the pan cool slowly and evenly.
Dude, you're not supposed to scrape off the seasoning every time you wash the pan. I reapply a bit of oil maybe once or twice a year. I normally just wash it some soap and water after cooking.
I don't use soap, I just use a bit of hot water with the kitchen faucet sprayer and I have a flat metal spatula to scrape off any stuck on bits... wipe with paper towel and that's it.
That's perfectly fine, I use soap because I eat meat and my gf is vegetarian so I don't want to leave any grease. Also I find soap just makes it a bit easier to clean.
