you can season them in a hot oven too
unless it's got a wooden handle ... then you'll prolly have a smoke mark on your bathroom, bedroom, and every other room

A wok's just a bent frying pan isn't it?
Cast iron pans are usually done in the oven.

Keyword is WOK, not cast iron pan
it's carbon steel and will take quite awhile to get the proper patina that helps with the taste

I got something like this for christmas.

Haven't used it yet though. Should be good for frying and ovening. It says it doesn't need seasoning and should build a patina on it's own. Sounds like fibs.

I've got a cheap non stick one that I have only used once because all the noodles stuck to it.
I cook most of my food in my cast iron pans and skillets.

It ain't the greatest at flash frying.
And weighs a fucking tonne.
It does a nice Beef Rendang though.

I just looked at it, basically looks like a dutch pot
A good cast iron Dutch pot is a basic necessity for my kitchen

Not according to what I've been led to believe a well seasoned wok does stop food from sticking
and is also supposed to enhance the flavour
