As the metal heats, oils absorb and burn into the surface. When the pan is new it should only be used for frying until they have a strong black seasoning layer, then they will be able to take any meals. It is recommended to put the pans onto a high heat at the beginning of every use so the seasoning gets better with use. Steel will rust if left unprotected, but if cared for, will only get better with age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eAvoid rust by washing pans with hot water only (no dish detergent) and scrub to remove any food residue if necessary; do not leave them to soak. Make sure they are completely dry before putting them away. If a pan ever becomes rusty it's an easy fix, a scouring pad will remove the rust.
