I see posts talking about good BIFL items but I don’t hear much about the other side of products that are bad or products you bought but don’t even use.

    I think most traditional woks are carbon steel, seasoned similarly to a cast iron but much lighter. You could give that a try?

      Yeah I asked my family for a wok a few years ago and got this beautiful one that was cast iron and way too heavy. I ended up getting a carbon steel one which was about a third the weight

      I thought about that a few times, but my wife doesn’t want another wok that’s taking space. So would need to fine a new home for old one, which doesn’t seem to easy.

          I recently got a glazed ceramic pizza stone for $2 at my weird kitchen stuff thrift store and have been having a blast with it.

          Might be a good idea. I hope I find one in my area. Thrift stores aren’t that common here.
