FAQs

1. What are the benefits of cooking with cast iron tawas? +

Cast iron offers durability, even heat distribution, superior heat retention, a natural non-stick surface, and can even add trace amounts of beneficial dietary iron to your food, depending on the food items being cooked.

2. Can cast iron tawas be used on all cooktops? +

Yes, flat-base cast iron tawas like Stahl's are highly versatile and compatible with gas, induction, electric, and even campfire cooking.

3. Is my new cast iron tawa pre-seasoned? +

Many tawas come pre-seasoned with vegetable oil to prevent rust formation, but it's recommended to perform an initial seasoning once or twice yourself for optimal non-stick performance.

4. How do I season a new cast iron tawa? +

Clean and thoroughly dry the tawa, apply a thin, even layer of any natural cooking oil, then heat it on a gas stove or induction cooktop, until smoke starts to emerge. Take it off the heat and allow it to cool completely afterward. Then, wipe down with a soft cloth (avoid paper napkins or tissues as they leave residue stuck to the surface) and store properly to use soon after. For more information, view our cast iron seasoning guidance video.

5. How often should I re-season my cast iron tawa? +

Re-season your tawa regularly, ideally after every wash or whenever it appears dull, grey, or if food starts sticking, to maintain and enhance its non-stick properties and prevent rust.

6. How do I clean my cast iron tawa? +

Hand wash it immediately after use with warm, mild soapy water and a scrub pad, then dry it completely on the stove and apply a thin layer of cooking oil before storing.

7. Can I use metal spatulas or utensils on my cast iron tawa? +

Yes, metal spatulas and ladles are generally safe to use on a seasoned cast iron surface without causing damage.

8. What if my cast iron tawa rusts? +

Scrub the rusted area with coarse salt and water or a steel wool pad, then clean, thoroughly dry, and immediately re-season the tawa.

9. How should I store my cast iron tawa? +

Store it in a dry place; if stacking, place a paper towel or cloth between pieces to absorb moisture and prevent scratches.

10. Can I cook acidic foods in my cast iron tawa? +

It's generally best to avoid highly acidic foods like tomatoes or lemons, especially with new or lightly seasoned pans, as they can strip the seasoning.

11. What kind of oil should I use for cooking on my cast iron tawa? +

Any cooking oil or fat can be used; a small amount added before cooking will enhance non-stick properties and flavour.

12. Why does my food sometimes turn black or leave black residue? +

This is usually harmless residue from the vegetable oil seasoning, common with new tawas, and will reduce with continued use and proper seasoning.
