Cleaning the Rust off Cast Iron

If you didn’t clue in by the title of this post, I will be explaining on how to clean a rusty cast iron pot. This is the pot my mother wants me to clean.

I have researched on how to clean or derust  a cast iron pot. This video was rather helpful in finding out how to clean this pot.

My mother wants this pot for many reasons such as making sourdough bread, making rice, soups/stews, and roast.

We have to get good oil for seasoning, then I will add to this post with how we got it looking good. And there will be a beautiful picture of the pot after we have finished  restoring it.

  1. I can’t wait to see the results! I once returned a frying pan I had just purchased because it turned rusty after one wash. That was pretty embarrassing for me when the clerk explained it was cast iron! I’m glad your mother knows better. 😉
