Griddle CHEF COLLECTION 50 x 25 cm, reversible, cast iron, Lodge

Product detailed description

It's fascinating how quickly ordinary cooking can become a small ritual. The sounds, the aromas, a slight stress, whether you overdo it… and then the moment you serve it with the expression of someone who knows exactly that this is no longer just food, but an achievement.

Main advantages:

• The double-sided Lodge CHEF COLLECTION cast iron grill plate offers a smooth side suitable for pancakes, eggs, or sandwiches, and a ribbed side for meat, vegetables, or fish with a typical grilling effect.
• The generous surface covering two burners allows for preparing multiple portions at once, ensuring a smooth cooking process for family or guests without unnecessary waiting.
• The solid cast iron construction ensures long-lasting heat retention and even heat distribution across the entire surface, allowing you to prepare food exactly to your liking.
• The pre-seasoned surface with a natural oil layer provides a natural non-stick effect, and its properties gradually improve with regular use.
• The ribbed side creates distinct grill marks and drains fat away from the food being prepared, making the final dish appear lighter and taste more intense.
• The smooth side functions as a classic griddle, ideal for preparing breakfast in the morning or quick dinners without the need for additional cookware.
• The low profile and open design allow for easy flipping and manipulation of food, making cooking comfortable and without unnecessary limitations.
• Integrated handles on both sides provide a secure grip and facilitate carrying, even when fully loaded and at high temperatures during cooking.
• The plate can be used on all types of stovetops, including induction, as well as in the oven, on the grill, or over an open fire.
• The durable cast iron material allows the use of metal utensils without fear of damaging the surface, giving you more freedom and confidence while cooking.
• With continued use, a natural patina develops, which enhances non-stick properties and brings better results with each subsequent cooking session.
• High heat resistance allows for searing and slow cooking without loss of performance or material deformation during use.
• Maintenance is simple, involving rinsing, thorough drying, and light oiling, which helps preserve the cookware's long life.
• The cookware is safe for health - only iron and oil - and has no PFAS-based chemical non-stick coating.
• Made in the USA with an emphasis on traditional cast iron craftsmanship, so you get a reliable piece of cookware for everyday intensive use.

Caring for cast iron cookware Lodge:

• Washing and maintaining without chemical non-stick coating cast iron is easy, it only takes a few minutes - the reward is an almost unlimited lifespan of the cookware.
• With regular use and proper care, the natural non-stick properties of the seasoning, i.e. the layer of baked-on edible oil, are improved.
• Don't use utensils to store ready-to-eat food - leaving them for long periods (especially with acidic foods such as tomatoes, beans, wine or vinegar) can impair seasoning and encourage corrosion.
• Don't put off washing it for long, but also don't put it under the water hot right away - let it cool down.
• Wash it in warm running water and dry it immediately with a cloth to prevent moisture from remaining on the surface.
• Use a polycarbonate scraper or a dish brush for burns; a small amount of detergent is possible when needed.
• Never leave cast iron cookware to deglaze - not even for burnt-on residue, as this is detrimental to seasoning.
• After each wash, rub a light coating of edible oil all over the dishes and wipe dry with a paper towel.
• Use just enough oil to restore the shine and not leave a sticky film - this will preserve the seasoning and protect the cast iron from moisture.
• Cast iron cookware does not belong in the dishwasher.
