That’s not a dishwasher, that’s just an expensive drying rack
I clean cast iron how I want, purists be damned. If it needs seasoning again, then it’s done. That’s all there is to it. It’s cast iron ffs; you’re not gonna hurt it, it’s gonna outlive you.
Removing bits of rust and re-seasoning after every dishwasher cycle is a bit more works than just cleaning by hand tho
“a bit more”?^^
You’re all wrong about what the problem is here! Ask you mamaw if you wash an iron skillet. No wait, ask her if you put it in the dishes and watch her head spin.
IS this really the best way to clean cast iron skillets?
What is this from? Lol
Think I found it. Looks like its from the show Santa Clarita Diet.
It is, and Netflix killed it just like that cast iron skillet
the real gauntlet is reseasoning all of those pans and sharpening all of those knives before their owner gets home
This person is a monster.
Im totally not crying right now.
Of what, rust?
Those cast irons don’t even look like they’ve been through the dishwasher once.
That’s because you can’t see the unseasoned insides.
Forget the laundry gauntlet (mixing color with whites). It’s now time for the kitchen gauntlet!

- Is a silverware area thingy not standard or was it removed?
- Who puts good sharp knives in the washer? I was always told you should hand wash them.
The cast iron is wild and obv just a rage bait post, but most kitchen knives are fine in the d/w. Have a victorinox 8" and its still good as new. Purist will tell you I’m wrong but I’m not.

Anecdotally, newer machines have removable baskets. Some also have a thin rack at the top specifically for silverware. (Mine has it, they lie horizontally and free up dish space on the bottom rack)

Psychopaths. But that’s the meme. You’re not supposed to put them or cast iron skillets in there.
I don’t care. I didn’t buy a dishwasher because i still wanted to had wash some. If it doesn’t survive the dishwasher i don’t want it.
Love the silverware up top, good piece of gear.

This might be ragebait but people are definitely serious about this shit. I don’t know what they think happens inside a dishwasher, it’s just some water splashing about followed by some heat. “Is it dishwasher safe? It doesn’t say it is!” Fuck off, just put it in the top rack and be done with it.
Some plastics will melt even on the top rack. Some older plastics will actively breakdown and release junk in the dishwasher.
Some metal corrodes quickly with hot water, soap, and hot air. It also offends your ancestral spirits.
On the plus side, it’s pretty straightforward that it can either be cleaned in the dishwasher or in the oven.
Aluminium is a big one, that shit will oxidise to hell and back in a dishwasher as the detergent is caustic.
In all my years of dishwashering, I have only really offended my ancestral spirits once, but I doubt they will even remember it since there is so much else to be disappointed about.
Hand wash knives due to the handle. The blade doesn’t care too much especially if you’re sharpening them occasionally.
Those are probably carbon steel and will be fucked if you put them in the dishwasher.
I just commit to replacing the handle every few years. Well worth the convince imo.
There’s a brand of Japanese knives that don’t have a handle, one piece.
Sha Ra Ku Mono
The best knife I have ever held. Buy it for life. There’s another Japanese brand called Global and they are one piece but not as amazing to hold as the Sha Ra Ku Mono. My wife was a professional chef so we splurged to get her a full set over the years. The bread knife is a fucking chainsaw man… You have to really be careful or it’ll bite you HARD.
I think only one place outside of Japan sells them. https://seacut.com/collections/sha-ra-ku-mono
For number 2, that’s part of the joke I would guess. I didn’t even see them before you commented.
This is 100% ragebait lol
I see nothing wrong with this.
Hi I need to know where this person lives please /joke
