Use the iPro Kitchenware IPRO-C14-WOK Carbon Steel Chinese Iron Wok 14" to prepare all your special Chinese and Thai dishes. Manufactured from carbon steel, it provides excellent thermal conduction and its 1.2 mm thickness makes it strong enough to retain its shape under high temperatures.
This Chinese wok has an integrated handle with welded joints to give it extra stability while its round shape offers a comfortable grip for long cooking periods. It also has a non-stick coating which makes it easy to clean.
You must season woks made of cast iron or carbon steel before your cook with them to prevent rusting. Before you season your wok, make sure your wok is clean and dry. Then, preheat your wok over high heat. Your wok will change colors as it's exposed to heat. You'll know it's hot enough when you throw a drop of water into the wok, and it evaporates within a second.
Allow your wok to cool until it's safe to handle, then use a paper towel to coat the inside and outside in oil. Return your wok to the stove over medium-high heat. Once the oil stops smoking, that portion is seasoned. Do this with each section.
Next, carefully rinse with hot water. We recommend repeating the seasoning process at least three times. Repeated seasoning will thicken the protective coating and provide a virtually nonstick surface. With proper care, your seasoned wok will deliver delicious meals for years!
