Cast-iron cookware: Difference between revisions

The decline in daily use of cast iron cookware contributed to the closure of nearly all iron cookware manufacturers in the United States. By the beginning of the 21st century, Lodge Manufacturing was the only remaining manufacturer of cast iron cookware in the United States; all other makers had closed. However, cast iron saw a resurgence inof its popularity in specialty markets, as [[cooking shows]] and [[celebrity chefs]] brought renewed attention to cooking methods, especially cast iron. In the 2010s, small startup companies such as [[Finex]] and [[Borough Furnace]] were founded, especially to produce new cast iron cookware for specialty cooking markets; typically, these pans were high-priced and not meant for everyday purchases, in the manner of "luxury" cookware such as [[Le Creuset]] and [[Staub]].
