[edit] Carbon steel? Cast iron!

Carbon steel oxidizes really strange and makes a flakey white powder doesn't it? Cast iron woks come with a little machine oil on them but need to be burned in, i.e. by cleaning and then drying (over fire) and then applying a THIN coat of vegetable (not olive!) oil and then baking at 350F in an oven for an hour.
