Breaking In A New Griddle

First, scrub with soap and water.  Then, boil potato skins covered in water.

After 15 minutes, they’ll turn black and yucky looking.

Rinse and dry well with a paper towel.  Then, heat with surface covered in vegetable shortening.  Turn off the heat.  Wipe and brush with a paper towel in diagonal strokes.  Carefully, cover every inch with a second coating of vegetable shortening.  Heat and brush with more vegetable shortening.  Let it cool completely.  Wipe it clean in diagonal strokes.

Ready for Test # 1!

Look, lots of bubbles & no sticking!  Success!!

Last Step:

Enjoy your first meal of one sunny side up egg on toast cooked on a griddle that you’ve personally seasoned.  The satisfaction is priceless.
