School of Wok 14 Inch/36cm Wok Heavy Duty Carbon Steel Flat Bottom Bamboo Handle Silver

Unlike a conventional factory-coated non-stick pan, this wok has no synthetic non-stick coating. The carbon-steel surface is seasoned and can develop increasingly useful natural non-stick characteristics through correct seasoning and regular use. Seasoning also helps protect the steel from moisture and corrosion.

The flat-bottom construction makes the wok suitable for modern cooking surfaces, including gas and smooth-surface induction hobs. The substantial carbon-steel construction provides stability and is designed to handle the high heat required for authentic wok cooking.

A bamboo handle provides a comfortable grip and helps minimise heat transfer to the handle during cooking. A secondary handle assists with lifting and manoeuvring the approximately 1.9kg wok.

The wok is versatile enough for much more than stir-fries. It can be used for deep-frying, curries, stews, searing and other high-heat cooking applications. The seasoned carbon-steel surface requires appropriate care: hand wash only, dry thoroughly immediately after washing, and heat briefly on the hob if necessary to remove residual moisture before storage.

For best results and long service life, follow the manufacturer's seasoning instructions before first use and maintain the seasoned surface through regular use and appropriate care.
