Greasy cast iron pan
Another cast iron question: In my parents things, I found a cast iron pan with many layers of grease cooked on it. What do you think I should do to clean it up ?

One CAN add some kosher salt to the water; adds enough grit to help clean it out a little more.
SALT + IRON = RUST. Bad news.
It would be better to use a 3M pad than to use salt. A turn in the oven cleaning cycle works best of all.
Nope, wrong. There are many, many sites that promote removing stuck on foods and such with a paste made of water and salt (up to 1/2 cup on some). Soap removes the seasoning in many cases, unless one wants to go through the seasoning process again.
