I never use soap on my two pieces of cast iron -- a small skillet for
eggs and a griddle for bacon, pancakes, hash browns. My bacon has been
leaving a wretched mess behind (I suspect there is substantial sugar in
the cure) and I've had to scrape with a metal spatula before scouring
with some salt and a little oil. I use paper toweling for scouring.
