- Once your wok is seasoned, you can start using it to cook delicious stir-fries, fried rice, and other Asian dishes. Remember to keep it well-oiled to prevent rust and maintain its non-stick surface.
Seasoning is an important step to ensure that your wok becomes non-stick, prevents rusting, and provides delicious flavor to your Asian dishes. Here are the steps to follow to properly season your wok:
-
- Clean your wok after every use: To clean your wok, rinse it with hot water and use a soft sponge or brush to gently scrub away any food residue. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the seasoning.
- Dry your wok completely: After washing, dry your wok with a towel or paper towel. Place it on the stove over low heat for a few minutes to ensure it's completely dry.
- Store your wok properly: Store your wok in a cool, dry place. Avoid stacking it with other pots and pans, as this can cause scratches and damage the seasoning.
- Re-season your wok as needed: Over time, the seasoning on your wok may wear off or become damaged. When this happens, you'll need to re-season it to restore its non-stick surface.
- Keep your wok oiled: To prevent rust and maintain the non-stick surface, keep your wok well-oiled. After cleaning, add a thin layer of oil to the surface and use a paper towel or cloth to spread it around.
Maintaining your wok is crucial to keeping it in top shape for years to come. Proper maintenance will not only help your wok retain its non-stick surface, but also prevent rusting and damage. Here are the maintenance steps to follow:
