Yes, this cast iron skillet is fully compatible with induction cooktops, as well as gas, electric, and glass-top stoves.
It arrives pre-seasoned with 100% natural vegetable oil, so it is ready to use right out of the box. The seasoning will continue to improve and become more non-stick the more you cook with it.
