February 2021 30 Day Rule/30 Day Focus Pic and Discussion Thread- All are Welcome

I watched some carbon steel pan videos last night on YouTube. One of the manufacturers recommended frying potato peels in oil with a bunch of salt to season the pan. I hadn't heard of this method before.

Enjoy your day and have fun with your new pan.

My time off has been wonderful. One more working day and it'll be official.

Thank you Charlie. During the week, I oven sear or sauté on the stove top and then go the oven. Swati has been buying me relatively nice non stick pans that I seem to destroy in short order. Reportedly a well seasoned carbon steel pan nearly non stick without being so delicate.

 

Great Shave Clint and you cause me to pull my only cream for a shave tomorrow

 

I haven't heard of that. I have some seasoning wax which is basically a paste of canola and grapeseed oil. I put a thin coat on and then put upside down in a 450 degree oven for an hour. Take it out, let it cool and repeat. I am on the second round now.

 

Nice!

Thank you Dave. I am still trying to decide what to use tomorrow.

 

Headshaving with a shavette qualifies as an extreme sport. Nicely done.

 

Fantastic lineup Gary

Awesome shave Clint.

Looks like I'll have Google that one word Charlie

 

Just had a wonderful evening shave! TOBS face-lathered with Yaqi Tuxedo, 2 passes + touch-ups with Van Der Hagen - certainly not BBS, but close enough!

 

Head shave --- Fatip lo Storto w/Dorco blade
Face shave --- Gillette Red tip w/ Gillette winner blade
Omega boar
Fine L'orange noir
4711 after shave splash

2 very nice shaves to clean up a few days stubble . The Dorco got turfed and I finished under Jawline with the slant. After the headshave I turfed the Winner blade . I am smooth and smell darn good tonight gents

 

Great Double Header Shave Patrick

 

Looking good Matt.

Very nice Patrick. Hard to go wrong with L'Orange Noir.

 

Thanks, Clint!

 

It's all relative. For February, I will take 51 degrees any day. It hit 52 degrees last Wed. out my way.

 

Thanks gents

 

Thanks Dave.

 

Very nice shave and setup Clint! I do not blame you for getting extra zzzz's. Can't wait to see what you are going to make on your new carbon steel pan.

 

Carbon steel pans are fantastic. Gotta take care of them.

 

Great shave, Clint! I really like L’Occitane products!
