He said it looked like it scratched the glass, but in fact it was the bottom of the pan coming off on the top of the stove which he cleaned off easily. Gave me the willies watching him do that though.
All these demos. Remember the cowboy movies and the guy selling snake oil?
Cast iron? I have a friend who regularly uses it. Instructions in plainspeak, don't clean it gets better as more char piles up. The stove heat I'm sure kills the germs but..........
