Knowing how to prolong the amount of time you can store various foods can help you to enjoy them for longer. Also, preserving them in the proper way can help to make their flavors more intense and create a new texture. 5-Minute Crafts wants to share some secrets of food conservation with you.

The main advantage of cast iron is that once it’s hot, it stays hot which makes it ideal to roast vegetables and sear steaks. And while they require more attention than your regular stainless-steel cookware, they’re also not too hard to maintain. Part of the care cast iron needs is seasoning. This will help it to be non-stick and will protect it from rust. On the upside, if you use it and maintain it well, it’s a piece of cookware that can last for generations. 5-Minute Crafts tells you everything you need to know about cast iron pans.
