will require a re-seasoning. It is normal for your cast iron lid to require a re-seasoning

occasionally.

Prepare the lid by scrubbing it with hot soapy water, ensuring there is no food residue or rust,

and dry it completely. Heat the stove up and when it is only warm, apply a coat of melted

shortening to the cast iron. Rub it in with a rag a little to get the grease into the pores. Liquid

cooking oils are not recommended.

Heat the stove to a medium low and bake the top for at least 20 minutes. If it starts to smoke,

reduce the temperature as low as possible until it stops. Using a fan across the top will help

this. This may increase the time needed by a few minutes, but will not hurt the cure.

Turn the stove off and let it cool down. When the lid is still warm, wipe off all excess grease

you can with a rag. Once the stove has cooled completely, restart it and run it at operational

temperature for at least an hour. A re-seasoning may only require half of that time.

Removing mild rust should be done with a fine wire wheel on an electric drill while crusted

rust can be dissolved by soaking the area in a 50 percent solution of white vinegar and water

for a few hours. Perhaps use some soaked paper towel for this purpose. Don't leave it more

than overnight without checking it. This solution will eventually eat the iron!
