Properly seasoned cast iron skillets are great to cook with on your stove top! What is less well-known is how to season your pan, how to maintain the seasoning, and how to avoid common pitfalls that will damage your seasoning or pan.

I cannot stress this enough: keep excess water and water droplets AWAY from your cast iron pan. If it gets rusted, particularly on the inside, you'll have to scrape off the seasoning (which can be fairly labor-intensive) and start from scratch.

When reseasoning your pan, let it heat until the oil starts to smoke, then turn off your burner. I did not explicitly state this in the video and want to make sure that this essential piece of knowledge is known.
