It was a bit of a pain to burn it and season on a induction hob, but it's possible. I've cooked about 5 stir-fries on it so far, it didn't stick and I can see the patina forming already. It allows me to cook on the highest heat without worrying about eating teflon, makes cooking much faster. Review: Brilliant value - **EDIT** I've mentioned it below but since writing this I've read loads of the bad reviews which all say it rusts. Of course it rusts, it's made of non stainless steel. It takes a little work to keep it seasoned which will stop it from rusting. I have about 5 professional steel skillets at work and they are all rusty because they've been unused, unseasoned and stored for about 10 years. If I was to start using them again I would clean and season them. If you want ease don't buy this pan and then complain about it. Buy a decent nonstick one. The main reason I didn't buy non stick is because I don't fully trust the non stick coating to be food safe at the very high temperature that you cook stir fry. **/EDIT** I've wanted a wok for ages but didn't want a non stick one. Ended up choosing this one and I'm glad I did. Very well made, I wouldn't hesitate using it in a commercial kitchen (I've worked in a few over the years). Had it for about 4 months now. Used it many times. For all those saying that it went rusty after a few days. Of course it did it's not stainless steel, you need to season it. I only do a light seasoning but I do it after most uses as it only takes about a minute. When is new: 1) Wash it in soapy water, use a scourer if you need to. Dry. 2) Put it on the gas stove an get it very very hot. So hot that you get that rainbow effect in the metal (pretty sure you can see it in my picture) you want that all over. 3) Scrunch up some paper towel, dip that in fresh oil and being careful not to burn yourself, rub it all over the inside of the pan. It will smoke so turn the canopy fan on. The aim is to get as thin a coating as you can. 4) Put back on the heat for 20/30 seconds and then wipe the oil paper towel around the inside again. Do this a couple of times. 5) Wipe once round the bottom of pan with oily paper towel. 6) Leave to cool. After each use: 1) Soak & wash in warm (non soapy) water, rinse & dry. 2) Get really hot on the stove. 3) Do one wipe with an oily scrunched up paper towel. 4) Leave to cool and put away. Occasionally you will get some build up and some food may stick. If it doesn't just rinse off then you'll need to wash it with soapy water and a metal scourer. I scour it inside and out making sure I clean off all the oil residue/build up. If this happens season it again like it's new. ## Features - An essential for Asian food fans, this uncoated wok lets you really crank up the heat, and capture the essence of Chinese cuisine - Enjoy true 'wok hei': the plain metal builds up flavours and non-stick properties over time, for an authentic cooking experience - Versatile: Cook up favourites like sizzling beef, szechuan tofu and classic chow mein, or use it for steaming or even making soup - Robust: the heavy-gauge carbon steel is ideal for high-temperature cooking, and can be safely used with metal utensils - Suitable for all hobs, including induction, with a flat base for stability.

The makers say that this is coated with a transparent lacquer. How does this work? How can one season a pan coated with lacquer?** A: Hi there, the purpose of the lacquer it's just so it doesn't get rusted before arriving at your home, but don't worry, as soon as you start seasoning it you gonna burn the lacquer away and turn it into smoke, hope it helped. **Q: Do you need to season this wok?** A: Yes - wash it and dry. Heat as hot as possible, remove from heat and pour in cold oil. swill round and pour out. Wipe the oil off and repeat a couple of times. This will start your wok off to becoming non-stick. "The blacker the wok-the better the cook" Chinese proverb **Q: I have bought tha chinese style carbon steel wok, 30 cm and after one use and clean it get rusted! please tel me what i can do now?** A: 1. Do not use washing-up liquid on it ever. 2. Rinse with hot water and wipe it clean. 3. When dry ( I usually put it on a low heat to evaporate ) and 4. most importantly wipe the inside after putting a small amount of cooking oil in it to give a light coating with no excess. This will prevent rusting and gradually build up a none stick surface after a few uses. I've had mine years with no problem. Good luck. **Q: Which vegetable oil is most suitable to season this wok?** A: I've used rape seed which your standard Sainsburys vegetable oil. Use whatever oil you have that has the highest burning temperature. Don't use olive oil! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very happy with the purchase, good quality, solid pan. *by E***3 on 23 April 2025* Well worth getting it, I've only had it for a week but it's been great.

Had to season it before first use. A bit of post use care is needed (wash with warm water and oil) to prevent rust. Over all good value for money. ## Frequently Bought Together - KitchenCraft World of Flavours Uncoated Wok for Induction Hob, Chinese Style, 30 cm, Black - School of Wok - Wok Accessories (Wok Spatula) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/48291233-kitchencraft-world-of-flavours-uncoated-induction-safe-chinese-style-carbon](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/48291233-kitchencraft-world-of-flavours-uncoated-induction-safe-chinese-style-carbon) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
