How do you season a new tramontina 6.5qt dutch oven?

To season a new Tramontina 6.5qt Dutch oven, first, wash it with warm, soapy water to remove any factory residues, then dry it thoroughly. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and apply a thin layer of vegetable oil or flaxseed oil to the interior and exterior surfaces of the pot. Place the Dutch oven upside down on the middle rack of the oven, with a baking sheet below to catch any drips, and bake it for about an hour. Allow it to cool completely in the oven before using it for cooking.
