Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
I have always been a sucker for sauteed green beans tossed with an asian sauce of some kind. Add a little tofu and a few other veggies and I'm as happy as a pig in, well, you know. So I love the food in this picture, but I also love the well-seasoned, obviously well-loved pan that this dish was served in. I aspire to having a pan that is as well broken in as that one is (my large cast iron skillet and I struggle to be friends sometimes). Check out the recipe here.

It was cooked in, so I expect some mess, but this stuff looks positively baked on and rusted (although, I admit, it could just be the photograph).
Which is a shame because I bet the food was quite good.

A "perfectly seasoned" cast iron pan is tempered with use and CLEANED with water and a stiff brush. Not mottled with grease.
