The Cast Iron Comeback: Field Company Co-Founder, Stephen Muscarella

Fact: Cast iron is having a moment. And that’s true even while the cast-iron skillet has never lost its standing as one of the most iconic of culinary tools. So today, Eli talks with Field Company co-founder, Stephen Muscarella, about how a vintage pan sparked a journey to reimagine cast iron from the ground up. They get into what makes cast iron so special — and so misunderstood; the small design choices that lead to better cooking; and what, exactly, Field is doing to bring back the use of cast iron in modern cooking.We Want to Hear from You!Have a topic, craft category, or craft company you’d like to see us cover?
