Place the cast iron frying pan onto the stove top on high heat. This will preheat the pan. From now on that you only touch the cast iron frying pan with the pot holder, since it will be very hot.

Really? Wow!

Not just one potholder. TWO OR THREE.
Most people don’t ever cook at 500 degrees, so they think a standard potholder will work. Not even close.

Sounds silly, doesn’t it?

Well, I’ve twice forgotten the handle was hot and picked up a cast iron pan just out of the oven.

It is, I’d like to stress, not a good idea.

Really? Wow!Better hurry and say it before the government requires that as a warning label...

Many cooks put a towell over the pan’s handle to aid in moving the pan while at the same time reminding the chef or anyone else that the pan is hot.....

LOL. Really.
