Delicate foods such as fish and eggs often stick to the surface, while sticky, sugary sauces can burn and make cleanup difficult. Because cast iron absorbs flavors, strongly seasoned meals may leave behind tastes that affect later dishes.<\/p>\n

Moisture is another concern.\u00a0\u201cBoiling, steaming, or leaving food sitting in the skillet breaks down seasoning and encourages rust.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0Sudden temperature changes can also crack or warp the pan.<\/p>\n
