Question 1

Is it suitable for high-heat cooking and compatible with all heat sources?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Made from carbon steel, this pan is perfect for high-heat cooking like stir-frying, searing, and deep frying. Flat bottom fits all heat sources—gas, electric, induction, grills, and campfires. Avoid direct flame on the wooden handle

Question 2

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

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 3

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

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 4

Can it be used in the oven, and is the handle removable?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the handle is removable, which makes the pan safe for oven use and easier to store. Once the handle is removed, the pan can withstand high heat and is suitable for cooking in the oven.

Question 5

What makes this pan better than non-stick cookware?

Accepted Answer

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.

Question 6

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

Accepted Answer

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

Question 7

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

Accepted Answer

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

Question 8

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

Accepted Answer

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 pan gradually and cool it before washing

Question 9

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

Accepted Answer

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 pan once with a soap, rinse and dry thoroughly

Question 10

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

Accepted Answer

Yes, metal utensils are safe to use. The pan 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
