Keep That Cast Iron Skillet Clean

Cast iron skillets are great for cooking just about anything. They can withstand extremely hot temperatures and they only get better with age. However, they can also be a hassle to clean. Scrubbing too hard with soap and water can remove some of the "seasoning" that gives them their nonstick attributes. Instead, try using aluminum foil to clean your skillets. The idea is basically the same as the grill hack we looked at earlier.

Just ball up a piece of foil and use it to scrub away any food and stubborn debris that's clinging to your skillet. The best part is that foil removes rust instead of causing it like water and soap.
