Hey home cooks! Ready to make restaurant-quality stir fry that'll impress everyone? This authentic carbon steel wok set is what the pros use - and once you get the hang of seasoning it, you'll wonder how you ever cooked without one.
The 13-inch flat bottom works on EVERY type of stove - gas, electric, induction, you name it. No weird chemical coatings here, just pure carbon steel that gets screaming hot fast and gives you that perfect wok hei (that smoky flavor you love from Chinese restaurants).
Now real talk - carbon steel needs a little TLC. You've gotta season it first (think of it like breaking in a baseball glove). Chef Grace's pro tip: cook sliced scallions and ginger with oil for about 20 minutes, moving them around the whole pan. Some customers swear by heating the wok, adding cold oil, coating everything, then wiping it out and repeating.
Important stuff to know: • No soap! Just wipe clean with paper towels • Avoid cooking tons of acidic foods like tomatoes - they can strip the seasoning • That black stuff coming off? That's the oxide layer, not coating - just reseason and keep cooking
The more you use this baby, the more non-stick it becomes. Start with fatty foods like bacon to build up that patina faster. If food sticks early on, no worries - just stir-fry some chives or scallions until they char, then wipe clean.
Comes with a beautiful wooden lid that fits perfectly and four other pieces to complete your stir-fry setup. Seriously, if you love Asian cooking or just want to up your kitchen game, this wok will become your most-used pan. It's lightweight compared to cast iron but heats up even better!
