Causes of the bottom of the pan burning.
Burnt pan bottoms are usually caused by several factors, including:
1. Overheating.
Heating the wok to a temperature that is too high or too long can cause the bottom of the wok to burn. This often happens when cooking over high heat or using inappropriate temperature controls.
2. Insufficient use of oil or fat.
Insufficient oil or fat on the surface of the pan can cause adhesion (sticking) of food to the pan, which can ultimately result in burning.
3. Food is cooked too long.
Cooking food for too long without supervision can cause the food to burn and stick to the bottom of the pan.
4. The surface condition of the pan is not good.
A worn or damaged pan surface can cause food to stick more easily and eventually burn.
5. Contamination or dirt on the pan.
Contamination or dirt on the surface of the pan can also cause food to burn more easily. Make sure to clean the wok properly before use.
