Tip of the Week

Outdoor Cooking with Cast Iron

If you´re cooking outdoors over an open fire, one trick to avoid blackened cast iron pans is to coat the outside of the pot with soap before you put it over the fire. Take a bar of soap (liquid soap doesn´t work well for this) and rub it vigorously over the outside of the pot until the surface is coated. When you go to wash the pot later, the soap helps the black soot come off much faster and easier.
