Lodge 10.5" Seasoned Cast Iron Griddle/Comal

I personally prefer iron over the non-stick pans for their durability. I have used a lot of non-stick pans previously replacing one brand after another as the coating peels, but this iron pan is really good. We use it to make dosa and sometimes toast the bread. it heats up pretty quickly and evenly. Just one thing I didn't like is that the handle is also made of iron and hetas up and makes it unable to hold. It's pre seasoned, but I do season it a little cooking oil on tissue after I wash it and before cooking to prevent rust. Overall, it's better than non-stick ones.

It's Lodge brand tried and true! I make small gordita tortillas so 3 will fit on my round griddle. Its perfect for small spaces and is preseasoned. All i did was give it a good rinse with plain warm water and towel dry it immediately to avoid rust. Apply a light coat of oil before first use and preheat. Slap a tortilla on the griddle and let it cook awhile before moving it or the wet masa will stick. When the oil on griddle merges with the oil in the masa it creates a slick surface then you can easily turn your tortilla. I have not used it for pancakes or anything else yet. I dont have a proper cast iron scraper so i used a heat resistant spatula to scape any residue that remained, then wiped it clean with a new dish cloth and some oil and the next batch came out perfect also. I love my Lodge griddle and highly recommend this product...it will last a life time. Just wipe water off of it immediately to avoid rust.
