I treat my carbon steel wok just like I do my cast iron pots, wash with
soapy water, rinse with hot water and dry by hand towel. About every two
years I run it through the self-cleaning oven and then re-season it. YMMV

i do the same, but with a nylon scrub pad and dry with paper towel (no
heat) and apply a very small amount of oil after that.

but no soap, ever.

You beat me to it, no soap on any of my pans just extremely hot water
and a steel (no soap) scrub brush.

I dont use "non=stick" or in any way coated pans or aluminum pans, steel
or cast iron, though i do have a ceramic omlett pan that only has to be
wiped with a damp cloth.

And my presant wok was seasoned by an old Cbinese woman who used it for
20 years or more for her family. I dont even let any one else use or
wash that wok but me. And then its just hot water and a sponge.
