Important Use & Care
Titanium cookware develops its own cooking surface over time. Careful review of the following instructions is necessary.
- Heat Management: High heat should be avoided. The lightweight build causes the wok to heat rapidly, which can lead to burnt food. Moderate settings are suitable for most tasks. An empty pan must never remain on a high heat source.
- Protective Seal: A food-grade silicone coating protects the wok during transit. This temporary "sacrificial barrier" wears away with use as the pan seasons naturally.
- Induction Compatibility: This titanium wok is not compatible with induction cooktops due to its material properties.
- Cleaning: Manual hand washing is required.
- Maintenance: Titanium naturally resists rust. The application of oil after every wash is not required.
- Dishwasher Safe: No.
- Microwave Safe: No.
- Oven Safe: No (due to the wooden handle).

Care and Maintenance
Before First Use: Season with Oil
- It is common for a layer of titanium oxide to gradually accumulate on the surface of the pan/wok after use.
- First, wash the frying pan’s inner and outer surface with dish soap. Once you have seasoned the inner surface with oil, you can use it right away.
- Pour in enough oil to fill about 1/3 of your frying pan’s capacity and heat it on low for about 5 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and return it to its oil pot or other suitable container.
- Use paper towels to spread the remaining oil fully around the pan's inner surface.
Start cooking and cleaning
- Heat the pan and oil together. Use plenty of oil.
- Use low to medium heat level on your stove top. Pay attention to the oil - once you see signs of a heat wave, turn the heat down to low heat or stay at low heat.
- Once you are this setting you can start putting your ingredients.
- Pure titanium pans are not storage containers. When finished cooking, put any leftovers in an appropriate container.
- Use a scrub sponge to wash it with warm water. Do not wash it in the dishwasher.
- When done, rinse the pan off and wipe it dry.
- Titanium does not oxidise. There is no need to use oil to season it.
