Cook something greasy the first couple of uses… Burger, or bacon is best. After the skillet is seasoned, never use soap to clean it. Wipe it out with water, dry, apply a light layer of oil or Crisco to the cook surface and bring the oven up to 350. If it is very dirty, use a bit of oil and salt to scrub it. Salt is very abrasive. Or use a green scotch brite pad. Rinse with water and towel dry. Once the oven is up to temperature, pop the skillet in to dry face up, turn the oven off and let it cool as you go about your day.
