What are the differences between enamel cast iron and traditional cast iron cookware?
Enamel cast iron cookware has a smooth, non-stick surface due to its enamel coating, making it easier to clean and maintain. Traditional cast iron cookware is seasoned with oil to create a natural non-stick surface over time. Enamel cast iron is also more resistant to rust and acidic foods, while traditional cast iron requires more maintenance to prevent rusting and avoid acidic foods that can damage the seasoning.
