Food

Definitely super useful. Use them for anything you want to get a serious Sear on - steaks, finishing chicken breasts, even stuff like asparagus etc. Just make sure you treat em right and ensure you're not using anything that will pull the seasoning off the pan when washing them (that is to say, the natural layers of fat which build up on the surface, meaning they remain non stick) and in the same breath, avoid cooking overly acidic things on it, like tomatoes / citrusy sauces.

so just stick over hob, leave to heat for a while, then whack something on it?

sweet, might try some butterfly'd chicken breasts tonight
