This is the new secret weapon against dirty cast iron skillets! You simply use it with a kitchen brush and hot water to scrub away any food residue without scratching or damaging your perfectly seasoned cast iron skillets. It will probably surprise you just how aggressively this scrubs a pan and leaves no noticeable trace of food on its surface.

This particular one was a gift from my daughter, but I later found that it is made by Flavor Master and is available on line for $9.95.  (Just sayin’, I’m not getting paid!)
