No Stick

I've recently converted to cast iron cookery for a number of reasons, and the no-stick properties of a well-maintained pan is just one of them. Check this out - I started making a double batch of pancakes with about 1/2 teaspoon of lard in the pan, and a good hour later at the end of the batch, the pan is dry but the no stick properties are still rocking my world! In the end I do not even have to wash the pan!
