It is important that the baking takes place in a closed cooking
space. Therefore, make sure that the oven or gas grill has reached
the appropriate temperature of approx. 230 - 250 degrees and, in
the best case, place the pot and lid next to each other on the rack.
Now it is time to wait. The oil must now slowly evaporate. The
cast iron is quite coarse-pored, so the oil can penetrate the coarse
pores and seal the cast iron. After about 15-20 minutes, all the oil
should have evaporated. Residues can be removed with a paper
towel. Then oil the pot again and put it in the oven for another 10-
15 minutes. After cooling, it is crucial that a light lm of oil remains
on the surface. The oil that has soaked into the pores now acts as
a natural protective layer (the so-called patina). In the near future,
the Dutch Oven should no longer rust and can be used without
worry.
If the patina has been damaged after repeated use and rust spots
have formed, the stoving process can also be repeated.

Treatment of rust stains

In the case of rust stains, these should rst be removed with a wire
brush and then the pot should be thoroughly cleaned with warm
and clear water and dried well. Now the baking of the patina must
be done again.
