Flavors form Your Cast Iron Skillet

Since a cast iron skillet has a porous surface it will  take on the taste of a previous cooked food  when the skillet is brand new.

You should not clean your skillet with soap because it will strip it of  the seasoning. Therefore, It could take on additional flavor.

Now having said that, you should never cook a dessert after frying a piece of meat in the previous meal.

A lot of Hillbilly cooks that I know like to make skillet deserts in their cast iron skillets. So here if my advice. Since the skillets are reasonability price it would be a good idea to purchase another skillet. So then you can cook your trout and apple pie by having separate skillets.
