Seasoning Instructions

Seasoning your Kadai creates a protective patina that helps provide a smooth, non-stick surface while infusing flavor into your dishes. The patina also helps prevent corrosion and rust, and will become thicker and heavier with each use.

1. Clean off protective factory oil.
2. Heat kadai on stovetop over high heat. Tilt pan to heat all sides. **Smoke may be released, and the pan's color will change when exposed to heat.
3. Allow pan to cool, then coat inside and outside o the pan in a thin layer of vegetable oil.
4. Return pan to the burner over medium-high heat. Tilt the pan until the oil stops releasing smoke on all sides. The pan should have a matte finish and dark hue.
5. Rinse with hot water, wipe dry, and heat on stove over high heat to evaporate remaining water.
