Understanding the Wok

The term "wok" refers to a deep pan characterized by its rounded bottom and small diameter. Primarily, woks are designed for stir-frying, which involves rapid frying accompanied by constant stirring over high heat. However, their versatility extends beyond stir-frying; woks can also be employed for deep-frying in hot oil, preparing various soups, steaming foods, or even smoking ingredients.

Crafted from steel, this wok is suitable for use over an open flame, making it perfect for outdoor cooking. Impress your friends by whipping up delicious Chinese dishes in your backyard!

Essential Maintenance Tips

Never forget to season your carbon steel wok! Detailed guides are readily available online and usually accompany the wok itself. Proper seasoning and upkeep are vital to prevent rust. Here’s a helpful maintenance tip: always ensure your wok is dried and lightly oiled, particularly after washing.
