Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before first use, the wok requires seasoning. Wash the wok with hot, soapy water, and dry it thoroughly. Seasoning the wok involves coating the cooking surface with a thin layer of oil and heating it over a medium-high flame until the oil begins to smoke. Allow it to cool and repeat the process several times to build up a protective layer.
This wok is compatible with gas, glass, ceramic, halogen, induction, and electric hobs. The flat base ensures stable contact with the hob surface.
To clean, wash the wok by hand with hot water and a non-abrasive sponge. Avoid using harsh detergents, which can strip the seasoning. Dry the wok immediately after washing to prevent rust. Re-season the wok periodically to maintain its non-stick properties and protect the carbon steel.
