Know before you buy
Yes, the carbon steel components require seasoning to build a natural non-stick layer and protect the metal from oxidation. You should apply a thin layer of oil and heat them before their first use to ensure optimal performance.
No, these utensils are not dishwasher safe. The harsh detergents and high heat of a dishwasher will strip the seasoning and cause the carbon steel to rust, so they must be hand-washed and dried immediately.
The 17-inch length is specifically designed to keep your hands at a safe distance from the high heat of a wok. This extra reach is particularly useful when stir-frying over an open flame or working with hot oil to prevent splatters.
The handles are made from carbon steel and wood. While they are designed for a comfortable grip, they can become hot if left resting on the edge of a hot wok for an extended period, so it is best to keep them out of direct contact with the heat source when not in use.
After hand-washing and thoroughly drying the utensils, apply a very light coating of oil to the carbon steel surfaces before storing them. The integrated hanging notches allow you to store them vertically, which helps keep them dry and organized.
