Just bought the wok. After a few times cleaning it with scouring pad with detergent as instructed, the black residue still comes out. I even have black fingers due to that.
It's cast iron.. u need to season it.. just by scrubbing with pad n detergent more black residue keeps coming out.. 😅.. season it properly..then b4 each use just heat up wok then add room temperature oil. After it starts to smoke, swirl the oil around to cover the area. Remove excess oil..then bring down the temperature and u can start cooking. After cook, pour a cup of water bring it to warm/boil, use brush to brush away any food that stuck then clean it with tap water..if needed use very diluted soapy water with sponge to clean it (usually doesnt need to cause hot water removes any oiliness in it alread). Wipe dry and thoroughly dry it on the stove.
@@SuperTriplejs the black will residue wont come out if u season it well.. the more u cook i guess the more the wok seasoned.. my wok no longer come out the black black thingy
first u need to season it.. then when washing it.. don't use detergent, as it removes the patina coating which created during the seasoning. Normally after i cook, I put a bowl of water into the pan and boil it.. then use a brush to brush and then rinse with water.. sometimes if i need to use detergent i use very very very very mild.. to wash it. after washing use a towel to wipe then put on stove on low heat for awhile to completely dry it. b4 u start cooking, heat up the wok then add oil till got smoke.. remove the oil and then let the pan cools down slightly b4 u start cooking.. this helps to enhance the nonstick as well.
For first time use detergent to wash.. after that u can use detergent but dilute it. It is not about safety.. just that detergent will remove patina layer..
I use induction, most pans with a noticeable induction ring sandwiched in between will start bulging in the middle after a while. Has this happened to your wok? I’m looking to buy something like these as they are currently on sale
Hello! Where to buy this cast iron wok? Is this available for buying in Ebay or Amazon online shopping retailer? Is this item is available in USA for sale? Can you tell me the name of this work please
bought the wok a few months ago and the residue is still coming off. how long does it take to season the wok, or at least for the residue to not come off? is it safe to cook and eat with the residue?

@@PhilVieStory ok I'll try do that. Even the video from la gourmet didn't say anything about the black residue
Thank you PhilVie Story 😊
@@ennieghaz1462 u may google n see.. cast iron for sure will have the iron residue. It's normal.
Do you face the problem of everytime after washing, dry with towel, the residue still exist?
Season it well and it will have less black residue..
@@PhilVieStory Do you mean it will be there, but just lesser?

How to make it to become non stick,I followed all the instructions,but how many time I fry fish or eggs it always stick .

@@PhilVieStory this is what I did,it still stick.
@@leesiewoo5116 maybe the oil not hot enough prior to fry fish/egg
@@leesiewoo5116 before add egg try put some salt on the pan/wok.just little of salt.then fried the egg.
The wok looks not bad. 😀👍 If you are interested, SKY LIGHT can offer you a set of knives for the test.😜
Hi can i have your contact? I can be in touch at my fb page facebook.com/dailyhomecookmeal
According to the manual, it mentions not to use washing detergent. Is it safe to use washing detergent?

Im using induction as well.. and i dont have this problem you mentioned. Be it for this nitrigan or nonstick wok.
Wouldn't the wok be oily and sticky if rinse only?
Use hot water.. pour a bowl of water then boil it.. then brush and rinse in sink.. if really need to use veryx3 diluted detergent

La gourmet brand.
Too much of a hassle to season it and must remember not to use detergent.
I’m very simple - just use stainless steel or anodized wok pan solves all.

B4 cooking do an oil rounding.. so far mine doesnt come out after 2 or 3 times of cooking.
Why stirfry chives?
someone thought me to use chives and it does help in seasoning the wok. scientific reason behind it i also not too sure.
Stir fry chives is to remove the bad smell of the new wok... Nothing related to seasoning
