These are NOT cast iron:
I bought these because the description says they are cast iron. They are NOT cast iron. They are aluminum. I even had my materials scientist husband look at them and he confirmed they were not cast iron. The reason why it is better to have cast iron is because the iron holds the heat better when you are heating the irons in the oil and when you dip them in the batter the batter will cook onto the iron because it is so hot. Because these were aluminum when dipping the iron into the batter, the batter didn't stick as well because it was not as hot. Hence, very thin pretzels. I tried these anyway. They were ok, but cast iron ones are better.
