> Le Creuset cast iron pans

Those are wrapped with enamel. Pretty hard to notice seasoning with that.

Worth pointing out that this is also true of the Le Creuset "cast iron" skillets and frying pans with the black cooking surface. That surface is (annoyingly) enamelled too.
Yes, the bottom has enamel but inside the pan is cast iron. I prefer this TBH, make it easier to clean when spills happen.
It's just black enamel. There is cast iron in the middle.
huh, TIL. There's a Le Creuset outlet store near me and when I bought 2 more it never really clicked how different they were from my Lodge pans (outside of the enamel bottom).
It didn't clue in for me either for a while! Can't remember how I learned.
