I put a little water in it, turn the burner on, and scrape it with a spatula as the water boils. Rinse out and paper towel dry. Add a little oil if it needs it, heat again, and wipe off the excess.

I wash mine in holy water, then dust it with volcanic ash from the 1980 Mount St. Helens eruption, and wipe it down with a felted angora cloth, just like my mother taught me.

I'm noticing a severe lack of chants and prayers in your routine. And where's the incense?

Involving the cast iron or in addition to?

Normally I wipe it with paper towels while it's still hot, they go in the compost. Then I put a teaspoon of cooking salt in the dry pan and scrub it with another paper towel.

My theory is that what little grease is left behind absorbs so much salt that it becomes destructive to bacteria.

I buy cooking salt in big 5kg bags so it is dirt cheap and costs basically nothing to do this.
