Do I need to season it first?
Yes. Carbon steel arrives raw and must be seasoned before its first use to build a natural non-stick surface.

No. It is hand wash only. Soaking or a dishwasher will rust carbon steel. Dry it right away and wipe with a little oil.

Why Cooks Choose Carbon Steel
Builds its own coating
Season it and cook with oil, and the wok develops a slick natural patina over time, a non-stick surface you create rather than one that flakes away.
Light enough to toss
At about 3.25 pounds it flips and tosses one-handed, while the metal helper handle gives you a steady second grip for lifting and pouring.

How It Compares
Versus non-stick woks
Carbon steel takes far higher heat than a coated pan and never flakes, building a seasoned surface that improves with every use instead of wearing out.
Versus a cast iron wok
At about 3.25 pounds this heats faster and tosses one-handed, where heavy cast iron is slow to warm and hard to flip.
Versus a flat-bottom pan
The round bowl concentrates heat at the center so food sears then moves up the cooler sides, the motion stir-fry is built around.
Does it need seasoning?
Yes. Season the raw carbon steel before first use to start the non-stick patina.
Is it dishwasher safe?
No. Hand wash only, then dry and oil to prevent rust.
Will it work on a glass cooktop?
Use a wok ring for stability. The round bottom is designed for a gas flame.
How fast will it ship and can I return it?
Orders ship to the 48 contiguous states and process within 2 business days. If it is not right, you have 30 days from delivery to return unused items in the original packaging.
