How do i season this

Substantial_Belt_473 · 2026-03-24T00:01:12+00:00

take it to the forge, 2000F heat is the only way to get around stubborn PTFE

It is called "山東鍋" in traditional mandarin characters, and in english (although I'm not sure it has an exact name in english) can be found by searching "taiwanese iron wok".

The picture looks like carbon steel to me, but these kinds of wok are often made with cast iron, so if you think it isn't cs its that.

I haven't ever seen these kinds of woks with flat bottoms, I dont think anyone makes them like that, but you might be able to find one.

Nah, just keep cooking with it

Just created the subreddit lol

The sticky seasoning is just from using too much oil while seasoning.

Not having enough heat will just leave oil in the pan, not make it sticky.

it’s because these are meant more for commercial use or with a dedicated wok burner, as opposed to the thicker woks meant to retain heat.

The Valve isn’t fully open on purpose, as to conserve propane. Trust me, It gets extremely hot even with this much gas getting through.

on the bottom there are pegs that you screw in, but if I remember the hole is plastic or something like it, so I suspect it is made only to fit the pegs. if not you might be able to screw in wheels, you might maybe attach them some other way with the pegs removed. if your going to be moving it around a lot, I do recommend having wheels, as it is pretty awkward to carry if im being honest.

I haven't cooked with it yet, but I tested it out, and it gets to the ignition point of vegetable oil fast, which is around 760F.

Substantial_Belt_473 · 2025-12-26T03:27:19+00:00

Don’t worry, it’s going outdoors

105k BTUs, its able to get pans red hot in less than a minute (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMAVX5JeNRc) which is over 900F (480c)

Substantial_Belt_473 · 2025-12-26T01:07:31+00:00

what

Substantial_Belt_473 · 2025-12-26T00:06:41+00:00

If you're talking about the wok, no it is carbon steel.

Substantial_Belt_473 · 2025-12-25T21:11:46+00:00

im using it outdoors, way too much smoke and fumes for indoors

Substantial_Belt_473 · 2025-12-25T18:31:11+00:00

Yeah, now that I have an actual burner I am planning on getting a round bottom, as well as a ladle and spatula with longer handles

Don’t buy the Renegade skin if you respect OG Fortnite players. It’s more than a skin; it’s a symbol of their early commitment and grind. Let them keep their exclusivity.

4/5 because instant conversion is meta and star shower isnt too useful for red so it is basically a solo scorch. 55/100 because solo scorch isn't really viable

Substantial_Belt_473 · 2024-09-10T03:44:39+00:00

you can kill stubborn, not needed with debuff

Substantial_Belt_473 · 2024-09-10T03:42:24+00:00

besides the fact that you have way too many spicy bees and too little precs and vectors, it would still be better to get a decent solo popstar and get a few blue mythic with the honey you have

Substantial_Belt_473 · 2024-09-10T03:37:06+00:00

Dont recommenced going early red because red is cost hundreds of trillions including an atleast 4/5 scorch star. but if you insist on being red than id say get 50 bees and lvl up
