Appreciation post: I see a lot of people scrubbing their pan with soap and water right after cooking, then putting it away wet.
My grandfather taught me to do a quick re-season every single time. After I wash it, I put it back on the burner on low for a minute to dry it completely. Then I wipe a tiny bit of oil on it while it's still warm. It takes maybe 90 seconds total. My 10-inch skillet from 2018 looks and works better than my friend's brand new one because he just air-dries his. Has anyone else's family passed down a simple step like this?

Ever tried using the leftover stove heat to dry it after wiping with oil?

That leftover heat can actually bake the oil on.
