you buy a dutch oven season before you use h use about onehair cup of saltfree fav rubbing it around the sides and on the bottom heat until it begins to smoke take off quickly and rub with a piece of paper when cool wash it well this method of cookery lessens food costs too you use cheaper cuts of meat such as boned shoulder pieces and stewing fowl the grate is taken out of the iron pot then it is heated with a small amount of fat in it brown the meat leaving the cover ofr then lift it out until you put in the grate and pour in a small amount or water when it begins to boll put on the cover and
