i don't understand the confusion with CI. It is THE simplest cookware to use. Clean it with either the clean cycle on the oven or easy off. Wipe it down with a very thin coat of canola oil, flaxseed oil, safflower oil. Place in oven at 400 degrees for about an hour. Repeat the process two or three more times. You will have a semi non stick pan that becomes a completely non stick pan over time. Every time you use it, pour a cup of hot water from the sink in the pan when done cooking in it, but while it is still on the burner to deglaze the pan. Scrub lightly with a plastic brush. Rinse with water and wipe with a towel. When dry, add about a half tablespoon of oil, and wipe the entire inside of the pan with it in a very thin coat, trying to remove as much as you can with a paper towel. Put the pan away. Easy as pie. Makes a great sear, is non stick, and lasts lifetimes.
