Cast Iron Cooking For Dummies [EPUB ebook] 

In some cooking circles, cast iron gets a bad
rep – people think it’s old-fashioned, heavy, and
hard to take care of. And really, how often do folks nowadays need
to hitch up a mule and wagon and leave civilization and
Teflon-coated sauté pans behind?
True, cast iron is old; it’s been around since the Middle Ages.
And it is heavy. No one can dispute that even a small, cast-iron
pot has a heft to it that no other cookware has. Nevertheless,
cast-iron cookware has a place in today’s kitchens, and that
doesn’t mean simply hanging on the wall for decoration. Cast
iron has much to offer modern-day cooks; it’s easy to use, easy to
care for, economical, versatile, and durable, and let’s face it, it
has a nostalgic appeal that no other cookware has. But more
compelling than all those reasons is that it’s a great cookware
that makes great food. In fact, most cast-iron cooks will tell you
that food cooked in cast iron tastes better than food cooked in
anything else!
