I am being very thick here and not sure where to post, but I picked up a huge, seemingly unused cast iron shallow casserole dish at a charity shop. I have been looking for one for ages, but they are very expensive. It's not branded so may be rubbish, but for the price it seemed worth it.
The problem is the (ceramic?) glaze (surface convering?) is on the bottom of the dish as well as the sides and I wasn't at all sure this was normal and wouldn't just burn off when put on heat. I though it would have the unglazed cast iron. So can you all turn over your cast-iron cookwear and have a look at the base please?!
I think I have wasted my cash and this is a very heavy but entirely useless item!
It looks a bit like this one but its not branded
