Why Seasoning Is Important:

This process fills the tiny pores on the surface with starch, preventing leaks and reducing the absorption of food odors and colors.
You only need to do this before the first use—no need to repeat for subsequent uses.

  3. Simmer for 5 minutes, turn off the heat, and let it cool completely.
  4. Rinse thoroughly, dry completely, and it's ready to use!
