Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between cast iron and regular iron cookware? +

Cast iron is thicker and heavier than regular iron cookware, so it is stronger and more durable. It stays hot for longer and cooks food evenly. Over time, it becomes naturally non-stick. With proper care, it can last for many years.

Is cast iron good for health? +

Yes. Cast iron can release small amounts of iron into your food, which may help increase your iron intake. It also does not have any chemical coatings like many non-stick pans.

How do I clean cast iron cookware? +

Wash with water and mild soap (if needed).
Use a soft scrub pad.
Dry immediately.
Heat lightly to remove moisture.
Apply a thin layer of oil before storing.

Avoid soaking in water.

What is seasoning? +

Seasoning means applying a thin layer of cooking oil and heating the cookware.

It helps to:
• Prevent rust
• Create a natural non-stick surface
• Improve cooking performance

The more you use it, the better it becomes.

If it is pre-seasoned, do I still need to season it? +

Yes. “Pre-seasoned” means the cookware already has a protective oil layer. Regular seasoning helps keep the surface smooth and prevents rust.

How do I season a new cast iron tawa? +

Wash and dry completely.
Heat to remove moisture.
Apply a thin layer of oil (top and bottom).
Heat until light smoke appears.
Sauté onions once.
Wipe clean and store.

Can cast iron rust? +

Yes, it can rust if it is left wet.

But rust can be easily removed by scrubbing and re-seasoning. With proper care, cast iron can last a lifetime.

Can I cook tomatoes or lemon-based dishes? +

Yes, you can cook acidic foods, but avoid cooking them for a long time in newly seasoned cookware.

Transfer the food to another bowl after cooking. It’s also better to avoid milk-based recipes in cast iron.

Why is black residue coming from my tawa? +

In the beginning, you may notice a little black residue from the seasoning layer. This is normal. Simply sauté some onions once or re-season the cookware to fix it.
