Important Note on Seasoning:

Before the pot is used, it must be seasoned:

1. Heat the pot in the open fire until the protective oil burns off and the pot takes on a brighter color.
2. Let the pot cool down.
3. Cover the lukewarm pot from the inside with a thin layer of oil.

Through this process, you will achieve an invisible, natural patina that not only enhances the flavor of your food but also extends the lifespan of the pot.
