Should I not be cooking anything tomato based with my cast iron?

[–] eclipse@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

If the cast iron is well seasoned you're fine.

The acid in the tomato will attack the coating you've developed but if you use it and season it regularly there is nothing to worry about.

The great thing about cast iron is even if you "wreck it" it's pretty much always possible to fix.

I love that the best way to fix cast iron is to cook bacon.
