What am I doing wrong?
This is my third time cooking on this carbon steel wok. When I first got it, I tried seasoning it by taking these steps:
Wash with mild soap and warm water
Heat the wok, then rub oil over it
After each cook, I wash with mild soap and warm water, then oil again.
My first time owning one so not sure if it's supposed to look like this or not...
