FAQs

Can I use metal utensils with this wok?

While the enamel is durable, using metal utensils is not recommended as it may scratch the surface. Use wooden or silicone utensils.

Is the lid oven-safe?

Yes, the glass lid is oven safe, but check the manufacturer's guidelines for temperature limits.

How do I clean burnt food from the wok?

Soak the wok in hot, soapy water to loosen the burnt food. Use a non-abrasive sponge or brush to scrub away the residue.

Can I put the wok in the dishwasher?

Yes, the wok is dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended to prolong its life and preserve the enamel.

What kind of oil should I use for cooking?

Use cooking oils with a high smoke point, such as canola, vegetable, or peanut oil.

How do I prevent food from sticking?

Preheat the wok properly and use sufficient oil. Also, ensure the wok is seasoned or re-season it.

What is the warranty on the Staub wok?

Warranty information can be found in the product documentation.

Troubleshooting

Food sticks to the surface.

Ensure the wok is properly seasoned. Use enough oil and preheat the wok before adding food.

Rust appears on the surface.

Dry the wok thoroughly after washing. If rust appears, scrub it off with steel wool, re-season, and dry completely.

Uneven heating.

Cast iron distributes heat evenly, so check that the wok is flat on the burner and not warped.
