Your carbon steel wok: Our carbon steel woks are coated with a protective finish to prevent the pan from rusting during transit. Before using for the first time, clean thoroughly, then season to seal the surface and prevent rusting. Successive seasoning and regular use will gradually build a black patina, providing a smooth, stick-resistant surface, much like a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. The more you use your pan, the darker and more stick-resistant it becomes. Note: It is completely normal for an unseasoned wok to develop rust. Rust will not harm or alter the performance of the wok in any way. Simply scour the rusted areas and season as instructed. Full use and care instructions included inside.
