Review: Perfect Cast Iron Set - Excellent set! I purchased these after taking leisure classes at the Baton Rouge Culinary Institute, where we were learning Cajun cooking. I noticed these were the types of pans used to prepare some amazing dishes, so I knew I needed a set for myself. The quality is outstanding. The three sizes with matching lids are perfect for searing, slow cooking, and building deep flavor. The silicone handle covers are very practical and make handling the skillets much safer and more comfortable. Most cast iron sets don’t include lids, so I truly appreciate that this one does. The lids fit snugly and seal completely without ventilation gaps, which makes it possible to prepare even more recipes. I’m very happy with my purchase, definitely a great addition to my kitchen!
Review: Ours are really great. - Hello! Not so rough, at last the 10" one, which is the one used so far; can wipe with a paper tower without any problem. Maybe the manufacturer paid attention on coarseness complaints. Just a little water before putting on the stove, and it was wonderfully hydrophobic. First thing cooked out of the box, an omelet, with some oil and butter; just a little stick around part of the border. Second thing, fried eggs; almost no sticking. The first time we ever cooked with cast iron long ago, was frying eggs. They stick so hard, that it looked like part of the iron. After viewing so many videos and reading so many tips, what was wrong? We figured out fairly quickly: the heat. The pan was so hot, that the eggs began to cook before landing on the pan; yes, exaggerating, but it was too much heat for eggs. After long cleaning that mess, next eggs barely started to cook when dropped on, they started to get white very slowly, no sizzling at all. Sizzling = stick when dealing with eggs over cast iron. Haven't made anything else yet (like a steak) but felt the necessity to write the review right away, because seasoning it with a little oil after cleaning was not a problem with a paper tower; it got eventually destroyed, but not to the extent that cannot be used in about three pieces to be able to finish the seasoning; then have to get rid of all those paper tower flakes, which was fairly easy hitting with a kitchen tower. Maybe we were lucky, but these units are great (just tried the smaller one from a set of two) and we are very pleased with the quality and the price. Remember, keep heat extremely low for some cooking, and you will be able to move the eggs around the pan, turn them over for a while, and get then perfectly and flavored cooked. Highly recommended, but you must learn how to use and care for them. Update: yes, you are right, 'paper towel', just one, 'not a tower of paper' which would mean 'a lot of paper towel'. I know you got it and ignored it, but it looked very funny to me when realizing it, lol.

I hope this helps!
Sincerely,
Cuisinel

**Q: Is this skillet oven proof?**
A: Yes it is. I had it in the oven up to 400 degrees.

**Q: What type of oil do you to season**
A: Canola, corn, vegetable, peanut, even butter, lard, or spray on no-stick. The most important part is to "seal" it, actually seasoning it. To confirm it's "seasoned", after using an oil of some sort, even before using it to cook with the first time, bake it by itself at 350 degrees in an oven or grill for about 30 minutes. If it has sheen to it, it's seasoned. If used properly, make sure it's hot before you start cooking, there's no worry about sanitation. Once seasoned cast iron is more non-stick than any of the high dollar no-stick coatings (usually doesn't last past the first "searing"). With cast iron you can use metal utensils on it instead of flimsy plastic or nylon. It's not hard but take care of it and it'll take care of you, never use soap to clean it, steel wool or scrub pad is best., there is no substitute in the best flavor for cooking with cast iron. From biscuits, pies, casseroles, mashed potatoes, fried chicken or French fries. Take them camping and set them on the coals of the fire, or use them in the kitchen on a stove or in an oven. Cast iron lids make them virtually indestructible. Glass is nice to see through but if you're half a cook, you can work around not seeing every second of the cooking process. Best hash browns or fried eggs you'll ever taste are cooked on a cast iron griddle.

**Q: what part of these is ceramic? I'm looking for cast iron, and these look good, but the description says material is cast iron AND ceramic. ???**
A: I'm not sure to be honest, it's completely cast iron. Only thing with this pan is it needs greased and cleaned Everytime you use it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heavy duty and gives a great sear on meat.
*by M***N on December 21, 2025*

This cast iron skillet with lid is awesome for a chuck roast (and anything else). I was able to get a wonderful sear on the meat but also, as it continued to cook with the beef broth, the sear was better and better over time. It's one of the best cooking pans I've had, and that includes AllClad.
