IRON BENEFITS
LIGHTWEIGHT
One of the main drawbacks of cast iron is its weight. The Summit Iron Wok has many of the same benefits of cast iron but is much lighter making it easier to carry while cooking. Summit has found the best thickness of iron for the perfect balance between lightweight and heat conductivity to retain the best attributes of cast iron without the weight.
NATURALLY NONSTICK
Summit Iron Wok are nonstick without the use of synthetic chemical-treated surfaces. Create a natural nonstick barrier by seasoning the pan with oil.
LOW MAINTENANCE
Once a Iron Wok is properly seasoned, it is easy to maintain the naturally nonstick surface. After each use, simply wipe the surface clean and reapply a thin layer of oil before storage.
DURABLE
Like cast iron cookware, carbon steel is meant to last. Carbon steel cookware gets better with age and use. Regular usage of carbon steel ensures the building up of the nonstick surface.

BEFORE FIRST USE
This iron pan has been coated with a clear silicone coating to prevent pans from rusting before purchase. It has to be burnt off the coating before use. The coating is not harmful even though it remains on the pan while cooking. While burning off the coating, smoke will incur, so please turn the ventilation on.
Here are the steps to follow to properly season your wok:
1. Dry your wok completely with a towel, then place it on the stove over high heat.
2. Add a small amount of oil to the wok and swirl it around to coat the entire surface.
3. You can use any high-smoke-point oil like vegetable oil, canola oil, or grapeseed oil.
4. Use a paper towel or cloth to spread the oil around the surface of the wok, making sure to cover the entire inside and bottom.
5. Heat the wok over medium-high heat until it starts to smoke again.
6. Turn the heat off and let the wok cool down. Once it's cool enough to touch, use a paper towel or cloth to wipe off any excess oil.
7. Repeat the process of heating the wok, adding oil, and wiping it down a few more times until the wok has a nice dark patina.
8. Once your wok is seasoned, you can start using it to cook delicious stir-fries, fried rice, and other Asian dishes. Remember to keep it well-oiled to prevent rust and maintain its non-stick surface.
