How to Season and Maintain a Carbon Steel Wok - Ultimate Care Guide
A step-by-step real time guide.
Steel woks are great. They can generate 'Wok Hei' which is like a cooking superpower, and they're so versatile as you can use them for stir frying, steaming, boiling, deep frying, blanching. They are the icon of Chinese and Asian cooking - but you can also use them to fry your breakfast!
However they can be intimidating because you have to 'season' and maintain them. Non-stick alternatives are easier to use and look after but can't really cook like a steel wok in the right hands.
So this video is your one stop, in depth guide on how to season and maintain your steel wok. It's actually quite easy and fun to do. And cooking with a well seasoned wok is a real joy.
So if you've just got a new wok, you've come to the right video. And if you've still got a brand new one still in its box gathering dust, this is the perfect time to learn how to use it.
