This guide documents the method of salt-scouring a cast iron pan to remove rust and hard-to-get surface particles. This guide will also include the necessary reseasoning process to return your cast iron skillet to cooking-worthy quality. Using a dirty or rusty cast iron pan is a health hazard that can lead to ingesting rust and other harmful materials. This method allows users to scour surface grime and impurities that may be left on the pan’s surface without steel wool.
