I went and got a window fan and put it on counter blowing straight at my face. Shit was choking me:mj07:
You could have ordered out for about 7 bucks!
I am 40 minutes from civilization at 8,500 ft in the mountains of Golden. And we just got a foot of snow.

I have three .... I like Chinese food pretty good ... peanut oil is highly recommended... when you are cooking with a wok you are cooking at high tempts ... so always use an oil with a high heat tolerance , you know so it want break down at 500 degrees.... MSG is terrible for you , avoid and abort this poison , if recipe calls for it .
Experiment, use lots of different things ... just my opinion.
I have a Caphalon, an all clad stainless steel, an a old Chinese wok that is cast iron . To season this cast iron piece I just treated it like I did my cast iron skillets that my mother had and gave to me before she passed away in the year 2000 , God bless her .
Once you have seasoned the wok by rubbing a lite oil , I recommend Crisco veg oil then heat in oven for several hours , 4 to 6 will be good at a low temp lets say 200-225 degrees , if you have handles on this piece then you may want to heat on top of stove ,gas or electric, heat for less time if you heat on top of stove ... let cool before you store it ...then when you store it .... place it in a large brown paper bag and this will help in the seasoning process. The cast iron piece will season itself over time ... I should of said it gets better the more you use it !!
Really you need to pretty much let it season itself . Always make sure that when you put it up that it is completely DRY !! Avoid the sprays like PAM ....they will gum up the sides of the cast iron.I will use the spray in stainless steel , use it all the time in my all clad , also spray is ok later once the cast iron has been seasoned .

She just got up, at the moment the 2 crying kids are distracting her. I talked HER into chopping the veggies.
