Uncle Scott shows how to season a carbon steel skillet in an oven. We show which oil to use to season a carbon steel pan using the Oven Method. This method works for seasoning new carbon steel skillets as well as regular carbon steel maintenance seasonings, or just touching-up your carbon steel pan. It is very important that this method be used only with pans that have oven-safe handles; if your pan has a coated handle (such as a De Buyer Mineral B), then use the stovetop method: youtu.be/2mIF9Q0sg5g
DIRECTIONS
Simply start with a clean, dry carbon steel pan. If you are seasoning a new carbon steel skillet, make sure you follow the manufacturer's instructions closely for removing any coating applied at the factory and don't skip steps. Then, with a clean pan, add 1/2 tsp of peanut, vegetable, canola, or grapeseed oil, and rub thoroughly around the pan with paper towels. Take more paper towels and wipe the pan until it looks dry. It may take more paper towels, but make sure there are no runs, streaks, or drips.
Then place the pan in a preheated 450 - 475F oven for an hour and ten minutes. After the time is up, leave the oven door closed and turn the oven off. Allow the pan to cool in the oven.
When cooled, remove the pan and run your fingers across it. It should feel like smooth, hard metal. If it feels sticky, tacky, rubbery, etc., then some of the oil did not harden in and you need to reheat the pan in the oven again and allow the oil to cure, and follow the cool-down and finger test again.
Now your pan is seasoned and you can just start cooking! It is a good idea to put a few drops of oil on a paper towel and wipe the pan down again, and wipe until dry again, as a protective coat.
Some people repeat this process over and over and over, but around here, we have better things to do... like cook and eat some delicious food! Season once, correctly, and start cooking!
