Is this wok compatible with all heat sources?

Yes. Thanks to its flat bottom, the wok works on induction, electric, gas stoves, and even on grills, BBQs, and campfires. Just avoid direct flame on the wooden handle.

Is the wok non-stick and does it require seasoning?

It’s not Teflon-coated, but it is pre-seasoned. To enhance performance, season it with oil before first use. Over time, it builds a natural non-stick surface made from polymerized oil, which improves with every use.

How should I clean the wok? Can I use a dishwasher?

Hand wash only — no soap or dishwasher. Clean with hot water and a soft brush, dry completely, and apply a light coat of oil to prevent rust.

Is it suitable for high-heat cooking?

Absolutely. Carbon steel is ideal for stir-frying, searing, and deep frying. It withstands high heat and is the top choice for professional chefs.

What makes this wok better than non-stick cookware?

It’s PTFE/PFOA-free, safe at high temperatures, and much more durable. It builds its own non-stick layer naturally and delivers authentic, restaurant-quality stir fry at home.

Why does food stick to my pre-seasoned wok and how can I prevent it?

Food sticks if the wok isn’t hot enough, has too little oil or is overfilled. For best results, preheat the wok until it starts to smoke, add enough oil, and cook in smaller batches. This ensures proper searing and helps maintain a non-stick surface

Why is my wok rusting or developing pitting/flaking spots, and how can I fix it?

Rust forms from moisture or poor storage; pitting/flaking happens from acidic ingredients. Scrub rust/pits/flaked spots with steel wool, dry thoroughly, and re-season. Avoid acidic foods in early uses

Why is the coating on my wok peeling or flaking, and why does it wobble or warp on the stove?

Peeling/flaking is a result of acidic food ingredients contacting the iron. Strip flaky layers with steel wool and re-season with oil; Warping is caused by sudden temperature changes. Always heat the wok gradually and cool it before washing

What is the black coating on my wok and why is a new wok covered in oil?

The black color comes from surface-hardening during steel production—it's a safe iron oxide. No dyes, no chemicals or non-stick coatings are used. The protective oil is for shipping only—wash the wok once with a soap, rinse and dry thoroughly

Can I use metal utensils with my wok, and are scratches something to worry about?

Yes, metal utensils are safe to use. The wok is made of carbon steel with no chemical coatings, so small scratches are normal and not harmful. They won’t affect performance and will naturally heal over time with regular stir-fry cooking

As a new wok user I wasn’t sure what I was getting into buying a wok, well good news is I’m glad I did 😄. I’m having fun learning how to master my new YOSUKATA wok and I found the pre seasoned finish made for an easier full seasoning which I buggered up first time but got it right second time around ,wasn’t really that hard. From a blokes point of view I like the weight and the large wooden handle but I wouldn’t let the little 45kg better half loose with it. The large wooden handle and the helper handle on the other side make it safe to use and the heavy gauge carbon steel construction gives a nice heat range from the flat bottom and up the sides. Overall a very solid quality work horse I believe will last for many years, recommended.

The pot is lighter than normal iron cast and easy to handle. The seasoning process was easy and so far the pot is in great condition after 2 weeks

lo que mas quiero resaltar es la buena calidad del producto, si es costoso pero si se siente que uno recibe lo que paga por el articulo, yo compre el de 13.5 pulgadas, es algo pesado, no es facil manejarla con una mano. yo soy nuevo con los sartenes de acero de carbono, y algo que si se debe considerar es que tu estufa tenga una flama adecuada para poder usarlo, ya que yo no cuento con una flama grande y es un poco dificil calentarlo para hacer la comida a altas temperaturas, aunque me a funcionado muy bien, cuando la cure, dure mucho por lo mismo que no tengo una flama grande y dure mucho, aun le falta pero ya he cocinado como 5 veces con ella y no se le pega nada, al limpiarla es muy facil y es muy bonito como objeto tambien, lo recomiendo totalmente este articulo
