Never use soap for cleaning cast iron pots and pans. ...boiling water in the dirty pan to lift that which is stuck on, I dry it and re-apply the oil. After time and use, the pans become seasoned. Bacon fat can also be used, it's just the thinnest coat, rubbed around with a folded paper towel.
That is right Daryl. After boiling the water in the pan to lift the bigger particles, I prefer to use a little oil (or bacon grease), a bit of salt and a wadded up newspaper. The pan interior ends up smooth, shiny and virtually non-stick!
