Before first use, wash the wok thoroughly with detergent and dry it completely. To season, heat the wok on your stove and apply a thin layer of oil, allowing it to polymerize and create a natural non-stick surface. Use the wok for stir-frying, sautéing, and other high-heat cooking methods. Avoid cooking acidic foods until the seasoning is well developed to protect the iron surface.

After each use, clean the wok with warm water and a soft sponge without detergent to preserve the seasoning. Dry it immediately to prevent rusting and apply a light coat of oil before storing. Avoid soaking the wok or using harsh chemicals. If rust appears, scrub gently and re-season the wok to restore its protective surface.
