HOW TO SEASON A WOK ON YOUR OUTDOOR WOK STATION

A seasoned wok infuses flavor into your dishes and creates a natural non-stick surface. This surface, called a patina, protects your pan from corrosion, maximizes flavors, and improves the non-stick capabilities of the wok every time you cook. Seasoning a wok for the first time: (Estimated time: 15-20 minutes)

Initial Cleaning Steps:

  1. Wash wok – Complete initial washing (mild soap) – Thoroughly clean inside and out to remove factory oil.Cuisinart CGG-1265 Outdoor Wok Station 9

  2. Dry wok – Dry wok with paper towels both in the bowl and underneath.

  3. Heat wok – Preheat the wok over HIGH heat to open the metal’s pores. The wok will get very hot as you’ll see some brownish-blue colors forming in the wok.Cuisinart CGG-1265 Outdoor Wok Station 10

  4. Rotate wok – once you see smoke in a section, slowly tilt up and down and flip your wok to heat the front, back, and sides. Your wok will change colors when exposed to the heat and get darker.

  5. Heat Edges and all areas – Make sure all new steel area are completely seasoned. Make sure all surfaces have a uniform blue tint.

  6. Perform a water test by throwing a drop of water on the pan. If your wok is hot enough, the water will evaporate within a second, and it’s ready to be seasoned.

  7. Allow the wok to cool until it is safe to touch.
    Final Coating Steps:

  8. Use a folded paper towel to coat your wok in a high smoke point oil. See recommended oil on page 6.

  9. Keep the oil layer thin and even to achieve a smooth, nonstick surface. Because the seasoning also acts as a rust protectant, make sure you coat the outside of your wok in oil as well.

  10. Your wok seasoning process is complete when the entirety of its surface has changed to a matte finish and dark hue. Rinse your wok with hot water and use a palmyra wok brush to clean the wok without removing your seasoning. Place the wok back on over high to evaporate the remaining water particles.

  11. Your wok is ready to use. Always coat your wok in a thin layer of high smoke point oil after each use. Turn down the heat to cool wok slightly, but wok should be warm when applying oil to absorb in the bowl and underneath. See recommended oil on page 6.

  12. Wok should be seasoned after each use. Wipe thoroughly after each use and make sure nothing sticks to the surface, Surface should be smooth. Coat with a thin layer of oil after each use to retain seasoning.

Best oil for Wok

  • The best oils to use with a wok have a high smoking point, meaning they can be used at high temperatures without burning. They should also be refined and impart a neutral flavor. Avoid unrefined oils with low smoking points like olive oil and sesame oil. Choose one of these oils for seasoning your wok instead: Peanut, Canola or Vegetable oil.

How to clean a Wok after use

  • Always refer to the care instructions that came with your wok. Carbon steel woks require special care so that the seasoning isn’t removed during cleaning. To clean your wok after cooking, follow these easy steps in our Cleaning & Care section below:

CLEANING & CARE

  • Wok Cleaning- The wok cleans easily with warm soapy water and a soft sponge. Our Wok Cleaning Kit (CWA-479) The palmyra bristle brush will not remove the seasoning layer inside the wok, otherwise use a soft sponge and warm mild soapy water
  • Table top (Prep area) and backsplash are all stainless steel materials, It can be cleaned easily with warm soapy water and a soft sponge or for tough food stains from oil a stainless steel specific cleaner will help, then finish with warm soapy water and a soft sponge. We do not recommend using a steel wool sponge.
  • Under storage shelf and 4 legs and are black powder coated steel. It can be cleaned easily with warm soapy water and a soft sponge.
  • Burner – Regularly clean out any debris that finds its way to the bottom of the cylindrical fire shield like ingredients you used in you last cook or any water. Remember to cover the burner after every use.
  • Burner cover is also stainless steel material.
  • General – This Outdoor Wok Station, like all equipment, will look better and last longer if covered or away from the weather when not in use. After each use, remember to install the included burner cover over the top of the wok ring which is meant to keep water out of the burner.
  • After the station is cool to the touch, we recommend our custom-fit Cuisinart Outdoor Wok Station Cover for all-weather protection (Item # CHC-1266 – Sold Separately).
    Note : Every time you use your wok, the patina will become more developed, and the pan’s performance will improve. Its non-stick properties will increase, and food will release quickly and easily from the pan. Cleaning will become easier too, as food particles are less likely to stick. With the proper care, your wok will last you for many years to come.

HOW TO WOK HEI

So, what is wok hei all about?

Wok hei is a term used in Chinese cooking to describe the “breath of the wok” or the characteristic flavor and aroma imparted to food cooked in a wok over high heat. To achieve wok hei, the wok needs to be extremely hot, typically around (700-750°F) or possibly higher based on the location environment. This high temperature is necessary to quickly sear and caramelize the ingredients, creating the characteristic smoky flavor and aroma associated with wok hei. When the wok is at this temperature, it allows for rapid cooking and caramelization without steaming the food, which is crucial for developing wok hei.

Here are key tips to achieve wok hei:

  1. Use a Wok
    Traditional carbon steel woks are best for generating wok hei due to their ability to conduct heat evenly and quickly. This is why we included this 14” size, which makes 4-6 servings.

  2. High Heat
    Preheat your wok until it’s smoking hot. This ensures that the food cooks quickly and gets the characteristic smoky flavor. Typically, around (700-750°F) or possibly higher based on location.

  3. Cook in Batches
    Avoid overcrowding the wok, which can cause the temperature to drop. Cook ingredients in batches if needed.

  4. Stir-fry Quickly
    Keep the ingredients moving constantly with a quick stirring or tossing motion. This helps them cook evenly and develop wok hei.

  5. Ingredients Matter
    Certain ingredients like green onions, ginger, and garlic are known to contribute to wok hei. Adding them to your dishes can enhance the flavor.

  6. Oil & Seasoning
    Use a high smoke-point oil like peanut oil or vegetable oil. Season the wok before cooking to create a non-stick surface and enhance flavor.

  7. Practice
    Achieving wok hei may take practice to get the timing and technique right. Experiment with different ingredients and cooking methods to perfect your wok hei skills. Try, try again, you will master this cooking style as you get used to the system and practice. Most importantly, have fun cooking!

  8. Marinate Ingredients
    Marinating meats or tofu with soy sauce, rice wine, and other seasonings can add depth of flavor and contribute to wok hei when cooked.

  9. Use Fresh Ingredients
    Fresh vegetables and proteins tend to produce better wok hei compared to frozen or processed ingredients.

  10. Add Ingredients Strategically
    Start by adding ingredients that require longer cooking times, such as meat or root vegetables. Then add quicker-cooking ingredients like leafy greens or bean sprouts towards the end.

  11. Keep it Dry
    Avoid adding too much sauce or liquid to the wok, as excess moisture can inhibit the development of wok hei.

  12. Cook with Confidence
    Wok hei is achieved through fast and confident cooking. Don’t be afraid to turn up the heat and move ingredients quickly in the wok.

  13. Finish with Aromatics
    Adding a sprinkle of chopped green onions, a dash of sesame oil, or a splash of soy sauce towards the end of cooking can enhance the aroma of your dish, contributing to wok hei. By combining these tips and techniques, you can elevate the flavors of your wok-cooked dishes with the coveted wok hei essence.
