Who knew watching someone washing a frying pan to asian music was so relaxing? Great video.😂
My wok is passed down generations. It's black now. Was told it wasn't this colour at first. It was more greyish i was told. Now? It's just shiny, glossy black.
I didn't disappoint my grandma.
I've watched many videos on the subject and this one is by far the best one. Clear, to the point, and no unnecessary stories about personal anecdotes. Very well done. Thank you.
Agreed.

Thank you!
1. Remove protective layer with hot water, soap and wire mesh scourer (in and outside), and wipe it dry,
2. Turn stove to high and move all sides of the wok over flame. The wok will change colour. Can take 20-30 minutes. Allow it to cool.
3. Oil the wok. Turn stove to medium-high and pour some (canola) oil in wok. Spread over entire surface with paper towel.
4. Add some slices of ginger and green onion and some extra oil. Wok for about 10 minutes, then turn off stove, and remove food.
5. Wipe down with paper towels, then allow to cool, and give it a quick rinse (with soft sponge and no soap), and wipe dry.
6. Turn on stove to medium heat and dry wok on it (about 2 minutes).
7. Then rub thin layer of oil over surface of wok with paper towel (it can start smoking), this will prevent rusting. Do this every time you use the (new) wok. Over time it will develop a patina and become almost non-stick.
When I heated the wok on my stove, the color didn’t change, even though it was on it for 2-3 hours. What should I do if the color does not change at all? I've tried it on a gas stove, but it didn't change color.
You're a hero bro thanks for noting all the instructions down
there is something so calming about you..... thank u for the video
I am from down south in the US...this is exactly how my momma taught us how to season and take care of my cast iron, with the execption of adding ginger.
😂😂😂
Hello Sir don't know if you still are active but you said without ginger did you learn it with spring onions then? im asking because i have zero clue as of why to use them maybe someone can help me out a little bit im about to buy a wok that is seasoned already. Kindly Regards
I watched this video multiple times before i seasoned my wok today. This sure is good information. Thank you.
Thank you so very much. You have shown it in detail without unnecessary things.
Excellent presentation and expert advice. How to season a new wok and maintain it thereafter. Wonderful. 👍
I enjoyed the entire video, I restore cast iron pans that I collect and cook with as a hobby. I want to add a wow to my collection, I will use your video to season it. Thanks for a great 👍 video. Cheers TS
Quiet and methodical and easy to stop - start and follow. Just the method. Marvellous
Thank you for your kind comment!
WOW. out of all the videos out there that look so scary, this one was so easy to follow, and my wok turned out perfectly seasoned, thank you!
You are also quite beautiful and calm, it was a pleasure to watch this video :)
Before I say anything thank you because your tutorial is very good also I’ve been waiting to try my favorite Foods from Asia‘s cultures and by far some of the best ones are made in the wok so I really needed to figure out how to season it
This was by far the most simple, yet comprehensive video on the matter for me. The trick that i've been missing out on is to reheat and coat with oil after wash, and not use soap until beautifully darkened.
Best video , ever on wok care. I'm doing mine tomorrow and can't wait to see color change.

Thank you thank you, you made it simple and clear to understand.
Exactly what I have done all my life. The heat changes the molecular structure of the pan. The oil is used to finish and seal the pan.
Good video! Thanks!
A carbon steel pan works almost the same as a wok. The wok is better for stir-fried and works better with a gas stovetop. The pan is better suited to a flat electric stovetop. The wok is heavier than a pan. Assuming we are using both carbon steel wok and pan, they seasoned with the same procedure.
I recently bought this wok after watching this video. Its a Great wok at half the cost of many others on Amazon. My wok came out just like hers after i seasoned it. Love cooking with it.
Jackhammer82A1, is this wok you bought is stainless steel or cast iron? I would like to know as I have a new stainless steel wok but wonder whether I can use this method to season my wok. Thank you
@@eunicejade9592 They say they bought the same wok as is in the video, the link is in the description. According to amazon it is carbon steel.
@-opus, carbon steel wok is very good wok.👍
I love the way you clean the wok I will clean mine thanks for sharing 😋
Thanks so much. I never would have thought to use the ginger and green onion, but I can see why that would be helpful in developing that good seasoning. Otherwise it's very much like cast iron pan maintanence.
Very instructive. Thank you
Followed your instructions and it turned out almost perfectly. I didn't wipe completely dry after washing with detergent, and it left some (very small) water marks on the inside, but apart from that I now have a beautiful blue wok! Thanks so much
😮Thank you,This is just Wonderful ,you show us the very easy way to season a wok. Again thank you sooo much.🙂
Wonderful, Wonderful Video and the music set the tone! Thanks so much!!
Wonderfully well explained. Thank you for this video! Loved the added ginger and scallions! Subscribing!
Actual useful video on how to season a wok!! I've click so many good where is nothing but useless talk! This has actions, instructions and it's clear. Thank you!! Guess i need a carbon steel wok not the stainless steel one...
I have used the same method for cast iron cook ware, it will not rust if it does rust, just season it again.
Thanks. I've learnt a lot
Absolutely right. Did you hear her say, “Over time…”, this is key. There is no instant seasoning. This is the best video on the subject, but you have to cook to get that patina the everyone confuses with seasoning. My advice: after doing what she said, caramelize a whole bag of onions. When you’re done, you’ll have a patina AND a supply of sweet, dark golden onions for the freezer.
I think I have the same wok and stove and it’s amazing. Cooks hot, but I can’t really complain. Great video, doing mine tonight.
Thanks for this very instructive video.
Just got a wok and I really appreciate your tutorial. 😎
Fantastic, clear tutorial 👏
Thanks for the tip, i started to use a wok but have no idea how to care 4 one
I😊😊😊😊😊
Well presented AND HELPFUL......THANK YOU.
The best I have seen about seasoning carbon steel stuff (mine are lyonnaise 12 inch and 8 inch skillets). No BS and 'natural'. I added some proverbial potato skin to the ginger and scallion as I had tons lying around from previous seasoning attempts.
Thank you so very much for sharing with us the skills and how to take care of it as well mam !. Good day to you !.
Ohh I was amazed by your video host. Thanks for sharing. ❤❤❤
My wife picked up a wok recently, but it is Teflon coated, so I will be shopping for another, more traditional one. I have been enjoying learning the basics of stir fries and Asian cooking/seasoning principles.
So far everything has come out great. My first attempts may not be quite as authentic as they could be, but they still turned out delicious.
I like the fact that with a few basic ingredients and skills one can cook some very tasty meals quickly and easily.
I am glad to hear you are enjoying wok cooking. Stif fries do taste different when cooked in a wok.
Avoid teflon, it is a neurotoxin.
Teflon is note good when heated. Harmful to health.
Good explanation ! Very useful 👍 Best wishes from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰💯
That was fantastic! Thank you for explaining perfectly!!
Fantastic video! Thank you so much
Season a Wok, I am not a cook, but very good knowledge and I will advice my wife. Thanks !
I love the art and culture and the cooking as well
This is soooooooo helpful, thank you!
I’ve been looking for a good wok with handle for all my Indian cooking.
I got the “Craft Wok” and just seasoned first time using her technique.
It turned out to be exactly same as she described.
Best video explaining all the details!
Thanks a lot!!
I loved the video and I definitely LOVE ALL MY WOKS.
Very informative,thank you!

Excellent and very easy tutorial
.nice tip, is this applicable to any type wok material, like aluminum, cast, steel?
OMG thank you so much ❤ mines came out just like yours!!!
Thank you for your video. Its been so helpful. Have a great life :)
You are welcome! :)
Thank for the info
It's 15 minutes before midnight and I'm lying in my bed, watching a lovely auntie season a wok.
I used to have a well seasoned round bottom hand hammered wok but then ended up with an electric stove and even with a ring it didn’t work out that well.I ended up giving it away so i recently bought a Helen Chen flat bottomed wok and seasoned it the old fashioned way ,after cleaning with a scouring pad I coated it with oil baked it at 400 for 20 minutes when it cooled put the handle on it cooked some onions in it and then used it ,the only way to properly season it is to use it. Long way to get to a simple answer.
Thank you very much finally a very well explained video. Thanks again and subscribe!
I have three of them very nice indeed
Thanks little lady
Great video! thank you very much🙂
I season the outside as well in order to inhibit corrosion. Plus I like playing with flames 🙂
Thank you so much! From Rome 👋
Thank you!! This was easy to follow and my wok looks amazing! I'm cooking dinner on it tonight - can't wait!💥
Welcone. Excellent presentation. From Poland
Why did you incompletely blue the wok?
6 thousand years later
Thank you!
WHAT GREAT VIDEO THANK YOU SO MUCH 🙏☺💚FROM FLORIDA
That wok looks delicious
I hope you have strong teeth.
Very helpful for me. Thank you.
Thank you so much for this! I will try this!!
This is for steel wok ! Is it applicable also for ‘iron wok’, too ?
Excellent. Thank you.
Thank you
This is the first time I'm hearing this. Very interesting.
Thank you so much for sharing.
So, should I season it everytime before cooking? Or one time after buying?
One time only.
No need for a season every time bfore cooking.
What brand of 14" Wok would you recommend for someone who is a very good cook, frequently cooks with cast iron for 4 adults rather complex meals that are a process of building flavor profiles? I always believe when I enter a kitchen no matter what I put on a table it should be something that comes from my heart and is an expression of telling my family I love them. I am just now entering into the world of Wok cooking after realizing how much I have been limiting our experiences.
The one I am using is decent and a good gauge. You can find my affiliate link in the description above.
@@Rotinrice❤
Excellent instruction video. Could you please share where you purchased your wok RING
Thank you. Very useful. Was it an aluminium wok?
Great thanks a lot from Italy
I am from the Philippines and a new subscriber of yours. Can you pls give me some tips on how i can choose a good quality wok but not so expensive? I ‘ve long wanted to buy at least one but had no idea how to choose a better one. Thanks and more power.
Don't be kuripot!
@@radiononsense9449 kuripot?! Hahaha lupit mong humusga ng kapwa! Kawawang nilalang!
Thanks for sharing your knowledges..I use a carbon wok and metalstone wok. It's not common to find stainless wok in France. In asian shops they are as expensive as carbon
you are very informative and elegant
Thank u for this Tutorial
Only difference I would make is to turn of the heat when the final coat of oil is applied; then wipe it lightly with kitchen towel and store for next use
Optional, yet strongly suggested, the traditional Chinese music in the background.
I got an aluminium wok, so do I need to scrub it with thesame tool or would you recommend a different tool to remove the oil before burning the coating?
Thanks from Sri Lanka
very nice very useful tip. very well explained. allthe best for your channel.from which place is vedio?
