My mom always washed her cast iron skillet with soap and water. Dry on stove at hi heat then apply veg. oil to hot skillet (I use a folded paper towel to apply thin coat). Never had any problems with sticking.

I love cast iron and I used to season mine and never used soap on them. I just cleaned them after each use like this how to video shows. I would love to be able to use cast iron cookware again, but now that I'm retired with arthritis, they are just too heavy! Darn!
