A deeply seared steak, freshly baked bread or a slow-cooked stew: cast iron cookware earns its place in many recipes. Its ability to retain heat makes it useful for searing and steady cooking. Explore Milestone66 pans, pots and griddles, then compare dimensions, capacity and surface finish to find the right piece for your kitchen.
Choose the shape for your recipe
A pan or griddle offers a broad surface for searing meat and vegetables. A deeper pot with a lid suits stews and bread baking. Check the base diameter, usable cooking area and weight, including how you will lift the cookware when full.
Heat gradually and check compatibility
Give cast iron time to warm up, add fat as your recipe requires and avoid overcrowding the cooking surface. Check each product for hob, induction, oven or grill compatibility. Handles and lids can affect where the cookware may be used.
Care for uncoated cast iron
Follow the manufacturer’s first-use instructions. After washing, dry thoroughly and apply a thin layer of oil when recommended. Avoid prolonged soaking and sudden cooling with cold water. Uncoated cast iron and enamelled cookware need different care routines.
