Self cleaning oven... Put the cast iron pan in the oven upside down and run it through a self clean cycle. might still be some stubborn rust spots or if you prefer I have had great results with plain white vinegar for rust removal on chains. stick the pan in a clean bucket , and cover with white vinegar. let sit overnight, but leave the bucket outside or in the garage, it can stink a bit while it works. |

Incidentally, as Phubar can tell you, these supposedly were made first in either a monastery or abbey in the 18th century. For this reason, they also go by the name monk's farts. We used to cheat and get them prepackaged at Albert Heijn.

I have cleaned and restored cast iron for a lot of years . I cleand one pan that was brown with rust. I cook with it today. Vinegir is the way to go. Just soak it in vinegar for at least 4 hours . Clean it with steel wool . If all the rust is not gone rinse it in cold water. (vinegar is a acid . Then put it down for anouther 4 hours till it is gone . THEN if it has food crust on it ?? well talk to me later . Thats anouther post .

Just for general info, we have a cast iron one of these and 2 thick cast aluminum ones....the aluminum ones kind of suck, except they're lighter and easier to carry. I LOVE the CI one!

I use 50/50 water and white vinegar for rust also. No more then 4 hours. That's a good score.

Thanks, gang! I probably won't mess with it for a couple of days since we have family coming over tomorrow.

I guess they're not your faves, since you're not going to be making them poffertjes.

Nice score Ron!
I've used the oven cleaning cycle to clean cooking residue from CI. I don't think it will do anything to the rust. (And If you ever decide to try that, do it on a day when you can open all of the windows! It put out enough smoke to set off fire alarms all over the house.) For rust I would use a mild abrasive such as a Scotch brite pad or steel wool to remove the loose stuff. Anything tight will be sealed over by the seasoning. I've seasoned some stuff using the routine recommended here: http://sherylcanter.com/wordpress/20...ing-cast-iron/ Fat little pancakes made with buckwheat flour sound like something I would like!

Nice find, Ron! I found an identical one at a moving sale a couple of months ago for 8 bucks. It has a little rust but not much. I thought it was an egg poacher? Thanks gang for your never ending knowledge!! Now I know what it's really for! BTW, I have an electrolysis tank set up. Now THAT'S the way to remove rust! It's real simple to do, with absolutely no damage to the original piece.

I doubt it would be worth building an electrolysis tank, but I did read on how to do it.
