Select a strainer size slightly smaller than your wok for easier handling. Before first use, remove the protective varnish by heating the strainer over high heat and season it to enhance its non-stick properties and prevent rust. Use the strainer to scoop out deep-fried or boiled ingredients, allowing excess oil or water to drain through the perforations.

After use, clean the strainer with warm water and a soft brush or sponge without using harsh detergents to maintain the seasoning layer. Dry thoroughly to prevent rusting. Store in a dry place and avoid prolonged exposure to moisture. Periodically re-season the iron surface to maintain its protective coating and performance.
