After each use, clean the wok with warm water and a soft sponge or brush; avoid harsh detergents or abrasive materials. Dry thoroughly to prevent rusting and apply a thin layer of cooking oil to protect the surface. Store in a dry place and re-season periodically to maintain its non-stick properties and prevent corrosion.
