My neighbor's cast iron rant changed how I clean my pans
Old Mrs. Delgado next door watched me scrub my skillet with soapy water and told me I was ruining the seasoning, which I laughed off until she showed me her 20 year old pan in San Antonio. She said all I needed was salt and a potato half, and honestly I tried it that Sunday with a burnt cornbread mess. Now I never use soap unless it's really bad, and my eggs don't stick at all. Has anyone else got a random neighbor tip that actually beat the internet advice?
