From what the stove stores say, no you can not use iron skillets on glass tops. I am assuming is that cast iron can scratch the surface or break if you accidently dropped it (duh, it will break my iron cores on my electric stove too but common sense overrides it). I personally dont see any harm in cooking it as long you re careful about the iron skillet and glass top, by not pushing it around, turning it, rubbing, etc.
What does others have to say?
Oh I do season my pans with Crisco and I do have the issue with stickness. Should I use bacon drippings?
I use mine very carefully on my glasstop. You are right to say be careful regarding scratches, turning it, rubbing it, etc. Honestly, any pan can scratch a glasstop but I am extra careful with my cast iron!
I like to use bacon drippings to avoid stickiness but have used crisco. If I find that the pan still feels tacky, I put it the oven at 500 degrees for about an hour (be careful it might smoke a little)
