You can’t season it like cast, but you can definitely get a really nice anti-stuck surface on it.

A lot of people will treat their woks with oil to get that type of low stick surface.

Woks are carbon steel, not stainless

Usually woks are carbon steel rather than stainless though, and definitely need an oil seasoning.

It still works. I do it on my stainless wok.

It certainly isn't as resilient as my cast iron, but it works and is super easy.
