Clean by the
@JDurk method. Rinse and brush the sticky stuff off.
Man that looks good. I didnt heat it after to oil. Just dried with a towel and smeared it on. Might have to add that to the process.
I have a plastic scraper by Lodge for food that's really stuck on. Haven't used it too much as the pan's well seasoned. Often just use the rough side of a sponge, the teflon pan safe kind and no soap, just hot water. Another method is coarse salt and a paper towel. After it's cleaned and rinsed, I'll shake it dry, then heat on high to boil off any moisture. Pour a little bit of oil and spread thin with a paper towel and let it get nice and hot. When it starts smoking, remove from heat and wipe it again. Let it cool.
Frittata recipe:
Use these pretty much every time. Will change it up based on what's in the fridge.
