If you have a friend who runs a Chinese restaurant, you could always try this, too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGXGJD2xTzQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGXGJD2xTzQ
I do this regularly and always clean my pan with soap after use.
- markgall 6y agoAlthough Kenji: "Whenever someone asks me why their cast iron seasoning is weak or flaky, I ask if they followed that popular (but wrong!) flaxseed seasoning guide [i.e. the linked article]. The answer has been yes 100% of the time."
- steve_adams_86 6y agoThat wok seasoning video is what I do! I also use soap on my pans, just not too much and with gentle scrubbing. The wok burner I have is this one: https://www.amazon.ca/Eastman-Outdoors-37212-Gourmet-Carbon/dp/B0002OOMRG/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?adgrpid=58573691902&dchild=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA6Or_BRC_ARIsAPzuer8L-6OHZ3JWaHHI_sXKDBFlldm9Po-S-8gG7MGVRbn1fvDE6rbvekcaAs2OEALw_wcB&hvadid=310059666622&hvdev=m&hvlocphy=9001599&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=e&hvrand=2115171900347259706&hvtargid=kwd-2121795806&hydadcr=24631_10908641&keywords=outdoor+wok+burner&qid=1610296864&sr=8-3&tag=h0a61-20 https://www.amazon.ca/Eastman-Outdoors-37212-Gourmet-Carbon/... It’s a ton of fun to cook on, and useful for way more than just the wok. When I go diving and get crabs for example, this thing gets a huge pot of water boiling in no time and makes prepping a lot of crabs really easy. And yeah, it’ll season any pan like nothing else. I was terrible at seasoning pans until I started throwing them on this thing.
