sounds great..i am taking notes here

what about grilling fish? does fish fall apart easily? try to eat more fish to get my omega 3

thank hyou cutipie. do you think i can make a bunch of them and freeze them? what about making a healthier waffle mixer, whole wheat, low sugar and less butter?

Isn't Palmer pizzelle maker coated?

I am concerned about the coating and rather go with the cast iron option if there's any made in the U.S.

now I feel better about it, and am ready to purchase a cast iron waffle maker (no coating for me). do you have any recommendations for a cast iron waffle maker? Cost is not an issue...
I am willing to spend the money for healthy cooking, therefore will pass on anything made in China.

Hi cast iron club members/experts, I new and begin cooking with castiron cookwares, primarily due to the concerns about cooking with coated cookwares. I just got a bunch of lodge cookwares. They all came "seasoned". Knowing that I shouldn't not use soap or any solution to clean after cooking, I used a stiff brush and cleaned hot water. When I sprayed a bunch of olive oil in the pan/pot and wiped off the excess oil with dry paper towel, I noticed paper towel had BLACK stuff. Oh...I now am concerned about eating iron or whatever the black stuff is. What did I do wrong, seasoning or cleaning?
