  • My - admittedly naive - understanding of seasoning is that you’re creating layers of dried oil that a) protect the pan, 2) make the pan nonstick without having to always use excessive amounts of oil, and iii) depending on what you’ve cooked in the past (i.e. bacon or other flavorful foods) will leach into your food and give it a yummy unique flavor.

    If you use regular dish soap (i.e. dawn), you most certainly can (and should) wash it. However, the trick is that you absolutely must dry it, put a light coat of oil, and then bake it to keep it from rusting. I preheat the oven to 450°F and then turn off the oven, and let the pan sit until it’s cool enough to the touch to put away.
