This handle skillet cover from Valhal Outdoor is made to store your cast-iron pan with handle. Cast iron has one weak spot: moisture. A pan that's put away damp after cleaning, or kept outside in a shed, develops rust spots that you later have to scrub off again. With the cover around it, the pan stays dry and dust-free between grilling sessions.
What a handle skillet cover gets you
The cover isn't a luxury, it's maintenance made easier: you have to restore the baked-in oil film less often, simply because less gets onto the pan in the first place. Your other belongings also stay clean, since an oiled pan leaves grease marks on anything it touches.
- Protects against dust, moisture and grime during storage
- Prevents grease marks from the oiled pan on your cupboard or bag
- Preserves the built-up non-stick layer, so less re-seasoning
- Prevents scratches if you stack multiple pans
- Handy for taking the pan camping or to the campfire
- Weighs 200 grams
How to use it
Always let the pan cool down completely and dry off before sliding it into the cover. A warm or damp pan in a closed cover actually causes condensation, which is exactly what you want to avoid. Rub the pan with a thin layer of oil or seasoning wax for cast iron before storing it.
Care
Shake out the cover and let it dry well if it's become damp. Never store it wet with a pan inside.
