The Living and Home Cast Iron Wok is designed for home cooks who prioritize durability and heat performance for stir-frying, stewing, and deep-frying. Its primary benefit is the exceptional heat retention and consistent distribution provided by the heavy-duty cast iron construction, which is ideal for achieving professional searing results. However, users should note that the pan is significantly heavier than standard non-stick cookware and requires consistent seasoning to maintain its non-stick surface over time.

Yes, cast iron is durable enough to withstand metal spatulas, though you should avoid aggressive scraping to protect your seasoning layer.
No, the wooden lid should only be used on the stovetop; it should not be placed inside an oven.
Re-seasoning is recommended whenever food starts sticking or if the surface appears dull and grey instead of black and glossy.
It is best to avoid cooking highly acidic foods for long periods, as acid can strip the seasoning and potentially leave a metallic taste.
Cast iron retains heat efficiently, meaning the handles will absorb heat from the main body; always use heat-resistant oven mitts when touching the handles.
The seasoning layer is likely damaged. Clean the wok, re-apply a light layer of oil, and heat it on the stove for 10-15 minutes to rebuild the non-stick coating.
Scrub the rusted area with a stiff brush or steel wool, wash with water, dry thoroughly, and apply a fresh coat of oil to restore the seasoning.
Utilize both side handles when lifting rather than trying to use one hand. Always place the wok on the stove before adding food to avoid unnecessary heavy lifting.
Before the first use, wash the wok with hot water and a mild detergent, then dry it immediately over low heat. It is essential to apply a thin layer of vegetable oil to the surface and heat it until it smokes, which creates a protective seasoning layer.
