Know before you buy
Yes, the Victoria skillet comes pre-seasoned with flaxseed oil. While you can cook with it immediately, many users prefer to add a light layer of oil and heat it once more to further build the non-stick surface.
Absolutely. Because it is made of solid cast iron, it is fully compatible with induction stovetops, as well as gas, electric, glass-top ranges, and even open campfires.
The integrated pour spouts are located on the sides of the rim to help you drain excess fat or liquids cleanly. They do not interfere with the flat cooking surface, so you still have full contact for searing and frying.
To preserve the natural non-stick coating, hand wash the skillet with warm water and a mild brush or sponge. Avoid the dishwasher, and always dry it thoroughly on the stove over low heat before applying a very thin coat of oil to prevent rust.
The 6.5-inch size is ideal for single-serving meals, frying a couple of eggs, or baking individual desserts like a skillet cookie. It is compact and easy to store, though it may be too small for family-sized main dishes.
