Know before you buy
Yes, the wok features a flat bottom specifically designed for excellent contact and performance on induction, gas, electric, and halogen stovetops.
At 7.5 kg (16.5 lbs), this is a substantial piece of cookware. While the weight contributes to its superior heat retention and stability, you may find it requires two hands to move when full.
No, the wok arrives triple-seasoned and is ready for immediate use. You can start cooking right out of the box.
Yes, the wok is oven-safe up to 400°F. This makes it versatile for finishing dishes or keeping meals warm after stovetop cooking.
Clean the wok with hot water and a brush, avoiding harsh detergents or the dishwasher. Always dry it thoroughly immediately after washing and apply a very light coating of oil to maintain the seasoning.
The matching lid is essential for trapping steam and moisture, which is particularly useful for braising or ensuring ingredients cook through evenly without drying out.
