Only iron and steel woks need to be seasoned. Stainless steel woks do
not need this treatment as they are far less porous than iron or  steel
woks. However with stainless steel woks, more oil is required  to
prevent the food from sticking.  Seasoning a steel wok enables foods to
glide smoothly over the cooking  surface of the wok. In a properly
seasoned wok one should be able to  make perfect omelettes. If the
omelette even sticks ever so slightly,  then the wok is not properly
seasoned and should be re-seasoned.  There are two methods for
seasoning the iron or steel wok. After  purchasing the wok, wash it out
thoroughly with detergent to remove  the surface grease which is
applied to keep the wok from rusting  while in shipment. Instead of
grease some woks are coated with  varnish coating and is difficult to
remove. Bicarbonate of soda  should be boiled in the wok to rid the
surface of this coating. When  the cooking surface of the wok is free
of anti-rusting coatings,  apply a thin coat of polyunsaturated cooking
oil to the surface of  the wok. Heat the wok up over a very high
cooking flame for three or  four minutes until the oil begins to smoke.
Reduce the heat and keep  the wok over low flame for the next half
hour. From time to time  brush some of the oil up around the sides of
the wok to season it. At  the end of half an hour the wok is ready to
use.  Another more thorough method of seasoning a wok is to brush
polyunsaturated cooking oil on the cooking surface of the wok and  then
place the wok into an oven at 150'C. for four hours. The oil in  the
wok will become pooled while heating in the oven, so about every  hour
or so, take your brush and brush the oil up around the sides of  the
wok and continue heating.  New woks may cause a slight metallic taste
to the first two or three  dishes that are cooked in it, but after use,
the metallic taste  disappears.  File
