How to store cast iron cookware
Find a dry area.
The most important thing to remember when storing cast iron cookware is that the area you choose must be dry. Moisture is what causes cast iron cookware to rust, so it's important you store cast iron pots and pans somewhere dry.

Available options: *If you're cooking in a garage or airtight basement, choose a dry area. A oven works well for this purpose, but if you are cooking your pots or pans indoors, hang them above the fire. *Choose a space that is well ventilated and not dripping a lot, such as the basement. Never store pots and pans directly in the center of your kitchen counter. *Many people leave cast iron cookware on the stove for storage. If you don't mind having a pot or pan out all the time, this is generally safe. *You don't want to use your cast iron pots and pans while you're cooking or baking. They will heat up too quickly if left in damp spots.
