Cast Iron Cooking ~ Friday Foods

Hi, Sweet Friends,

This is the dutch oven we use to cook stews, soups, chili, frittatas, and can be used on the stove, grill, and in a fire pit.

Cast Iron has been used since the late 600s in Asia. We also have frying pans, pots, corn shaped cornbread mold, and hopefully will be purchasing a cast-iron kettle soon.

" In Asia, particularly China, India, Korea and Japan, there is a long history of cooking with cast iron vessels. The first mention of a cast-iron kettle in English appeared in 679 or 680, though this wasn't the first use of metal vessels for cooking. The term pot came into use in 1180. Both terms referred to a vessel capable of withstanding the direct heat of a fire.^[1] Cast-iron cauldrons and cooking pots were valued as kitchen items for their durability and their ability to retain heat evenly, thus improving the quality of cooked meals." -Wickipedia

This cooking area is on a friend's homestead. They cook outdoors over a campfire and have created this awesome cook area/storage area for their cast-iron cookery.

Cast iron cookware is great for any type of cooking, baking, smoking, and stewing. It is easy to clean and needs to be seasoned after each use. 😊

Cleaning Cast Iron cookware is simple. Here is a post on cleaning.
