No, the interior is finished with a durable, acid-resistant enamel that does not require seasoning. It is ready to use immediately and is designed to resist scratching and staining.
Yes, the unit is dishwasher safe. However, hand washing with mild soap and a soft sponge is generally recommended to maintain the vibrant finish of the enamel over time.
