Rant: I spent 5 years washing a cast iron pan with soap and a guy at a yard sale in Tulsa set me straight
I used to scrub my grandmother's old skillet with Dawn and hot water after every meal because I thought that was clean, then last month a guy selling tools in Tulsa told me soap strips the seasoning and I ruined years of buildup. Now I'm torn between the soap crowd who say modern dish soap is too mild to matter and the no-soap people who swear it makes food taste like metal. What side are you on and did you learn the hard way like I did?
