A wok is a versatile round-bottomed cooking pan, originating from China. It is used for stir frying, deep frying, searing, and boiling.

What is the primary use for a wok?

The primary use of a wok is for stir frying. However, it can also be used for other cooking methods such as deep frying, steaming, and boiling.

What are woks made of?

Woks are traditionally made of carbon steel but they can also be found in stainless steel, cast iron and aluminium.

Is a wok better than a frying pan?

A wok has higher, sloping sides that make it better at keeping food in the pan when stir frying. It also heats up faster and retains heat better than a traditional frying pan.

Do I need a stove with a wok burner?

While a stove with a wok burner is ideal because it allows the wok to heat evenly, it's not necessary. Flat bottomed woks are designed to be used on conventional stovetops.

Should I buy a flat or round-bottomed wok?

If you have a gas stove, you can use either. But if you have an electric or induction stove, a flat-bottomed wok is better because it makes direct contact with heating elements.

How do I clean and maintain a wok?

After each use, wash your wok with warm water and a soft sponge. Avoid using soap as it can damage the wok’s seasoning. Dry thoroughly and coat with a small amount of oil to prevent rusting.

What is wok seasoning?

Wok seasoning is a process used to protect the surface and create a non-stick coating. This involves heating and applying a layer of oil to the wok.

How do I season a new wok?

To season a new wok, scrub it with scouring pad to remove factory oil, rinse and dry thoroughly. Then, heat the wok and apply a thin layer of oil. Repeat this heating and oiling process several times.

Should a wok be shiny or dull?

A worn and well seasoned wok will look shiny. A brand new wok will be more dull in appearance but will develop a sheen with use. A shiny wok is a sign of good seasoning and usage.

Can woks be used on induction hobs?

Not all woks can be used on induction hobs. However, there are specific flat-bottomed woks available that are suitable for use with induction hobs.

What kind of spatula should I use with a wok?

It's recommended to use a spatula that is curved to fit the round sides of the wok. Materials often used are bamboo, stainless steel, and silicone.

Where can I buy a wok?

You can buy it at Weee! Asian Market, www.sayweee.com.

Can I put my wok in the dishwasher?

It is not recommended to put a wok in the dishwasher as this can wash off the seasoning and cause the wok to rust.

What is the typical size of a wok?

The typical size of a wok ranges between 12 to 14 inches in diameter.

Can I use a wok for deep frying?

Yes, a wok can be used for deep frying due to its wide opening and deep base.
