What we liked: The Yosukata Black Carbon Steel Wok is a pre-seasoned, stamped wok with a smooth, beautiful blue-black surface. Conductivity is key here, too, and correlates roughly with the thickness of the metal: According to Kenji in The Wok: Recipes and Techniques, “it will take about twice as long for a 2-millimeter-thick pan to conduct heat from the burner to the food than a 1-millimeter-thick pan. Add new and different flavours to your menu, with the help of this flat base wok from Kitchen Craft. Zhen San Huan Hand-Hammered Carbon Steel Blue Wok: This beautiful, hand-hammered wok is a beast of a cooking vessel. It was also on the lighter side, which we appreciated when using our chuan to scrape out garlic fried rice into a serving bowl.As winter settles in, ensure your laundry stays fresh and dry with our innovative range of indoor drying products. Carbon steel shares many of the advantages of cast iron, but cast iron woks are heavier and thicker than carbon steel, a consequence of their different manufacturing processes. Featuring deep sloped sides the wok allows quick, even, and maximum heat distribution whilst the flat base allows maximum balance and control on the cooker top. Stir-Frying Test 2: We made garlic fried rice, evaluating stickage and assessing batch-cooking, stirring, stir-frying, and saucing capabilities.

Carbon steel retains heat beautifully, for fast, even cooking at high temperatures (essential for that stir fry ‘sizzle’). The double-layered non-stick coating also helps to keep the wok easy to clean despite cooking at such high temperatures.The item may be missing its original packaging, or the original packaging has been opened or is no longer sealed. Thanks to the thermal Infinity ceramic non-stick coating (PFAS-free) you can successfully make even the most difficult of dishes! While the Craft Wok had a larger diameter and bottom surface area, the uneven distribution of heat made it difficult to cook the greens evenly.
