As some of you know, I purchased a 6 qt dutch oven online, and it arrived this week.
I am getting conflicting stories on how I should cure it.
Some sites say to use vegetable oils/fats because they don't break down in storage.
Some sites say to use animal fats such as lard because the vegetable fats make the cast iron sticky.
Does anyone here have any experience with curing cast iron?
