Why does it stick?
There is no teflon or any chemical coating added to the pot. The non-stick effect of the pot comes from the fact that the pot body and cooking oil reach the same temperature, that is, the physical non-stick effect. There are four reasons why it sticks:
1. Insufficient heating time.
2. If the food is turned too early, it will stick to food surface is not yet cooked
3.The pan is not clean.

How to clean the wok when it turns yellow?

Is it difficult to clean? Will the wok discolor with use?
Discoloration is from the color of oil after heating. A lot of people cook with olive oil, which has a low smoking point thus burns and stains the cookware easily; furthermore, when over-heated, all cooking oil becomes sticky and stains. Actually, this discoloration can be removed by dish detergent if washed while still warm. If discoloration occurs, check your cooking temperature. The superb heat conduction of Buffalo cookware allows cooking with very little oil and heat, significantly reduces smoke and saves energy, and last but not least only requires a small amount of heat for cooking.
What should I do about the rainbow-like discoloration or white residue?
Our exclusively polished, wear-resistant surface is made to withstand everyday wear and tear. The rainbow-like discoloration and white residue resulting from
occasionally boiling of water, oil-free or low oil cooking, or build-up of mineral particles in food are normal and do not impede cooking performance.
They disappear upon coming in contact with cooking oil, or can be cleaned by the Buffalo cleaning powder to stay sparkling new.

How to prevent food from sticking when frying fish, eggs, meat or rice?
Please promptly turn off the stove if food starts to stick, wait for the wok to cool down, at which point you should be able to flip the food over with ease, and then resume cooking.
Why is that oil sometimes splashes while cooking?
This is because the food being cooked contains water. Just make sure all the ingredients are dried.
