How to Take Care of Woks
Taking care of woks is easy as one has to ensure that only seasoned ones are used and after use they are cleaned properly. For gentle cleaning, one can rinse off the wok with hot water after using it each time. Before placing it in the storage cabinet, users have to dry up its interior with a soft cloth or a paper towel. Medium to high heat is recommended with all kinds of woks, but still it would be better to stick to medium cooking as it prevents the food from overcooking.
A coarse cleanser is a big no-no as this will cause damage to the seasoned area. If one notices rust on the wok, it is better to season it again. Woks are never to be placed in dishwasher for cleaning as this is going to remove all the seasoned coating.
