[Help] How to process the moon cake mold? Boil in water, soak in oil, or other methods?

If it is a wooden mold, it is usually bought home or soaked in oil overnight. However, people only soaked for a few hours. Recently, some people even think that soaking oil is smelly and oily, so they directly rub it. But I'll soak for a few hours. Soaking oil is to protect wood.

Generally, you don't need to soak them once, just because most moon cakes are made once a year, so some people will soak them once before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Soak it, wash it with clear water, and then dry it in a cool place. If you can't dry it, the wood will crack.

Cooking is not recommended. In fact, although it is traditional wood, this year's wood is not as good as before.
