Cast iron cookware
Seasoned and enameled cast iron need different care. Seasoned pans maintain an oil-derived layer; enameled pans have an enamel surface.
Read the exact construction
The table keeps the surfaces and seasoning instructions separate. Use the maker’s seasoning method for a seasoned pan, not for enamel by analogy. Compare empty weight and covered-oven limits.
This comparison covers construction, compatibility and care. It makes no health claims.
