Wok for Asian Cuisine, Carbon Steel and Bamboo, 14-Inches

The Helen's Asian Kitchen Carbon Steel Wok is an exceptional addition to any cookware collection, designed to excel at a variety of cooking tasks, from stir-frying and stewing to sautéing, steaming, braising, frying, and deep-frying. Crafted from durable 1.8-millimeter carbon steel, this wok distributes heat quickly and evenly, ensuring your favorite Asian recipes are cooked to perfection.

One of the standout features of this wok is its ability to develop a natural patina over time, creating a coveted non-stick cooking surface. The 2-tone bamboo handle and helper handles are not only heat-resistant for comfortable use, but the sturdy riveted and flat-bottom design also ensures the wok sits securely on any stovetop, whether gas, electric, or induction.

For added convenience, this wok is designed to hang for easy storage, making it a practical choice for any kitchen. The carbon steel construction is easily seasoned, re-seasoned, and maintained to help prevent rust. As the wok is used and seasoned over time, a black patina will gradually develop, providing a smooth, stick-resistant surface, much like a well-seasoned cast iron skillet.

It's important to note that the development of rust on an unseasoned wok is a completely normal occurrence and does not affect the wok's performance in any way. Simply scour away the rusted areas and follow the seasoning instructions provided to seal the surface and prevent future rusting.

Before the first use, it is recommended to clean the wok thoroughly and then season it to protect the surface and prevent rust. Detailed use and care instructions are included, along with a lifetime warranty against manufacturer's defects in workmanship.

Handsome, rugged, and classic in its composition, this Asian Kitchen wok is an ideal tool for the high-heat searing and stir-frying techniques commonly used in Eastern cuisine. Designed by Helen Chen, the daughter of renowned Chinese chef Joyce Chen, this wok is a testament to the brand's commitment to quality and functionality.

The substantial weight and construction of the 14-inch wok make it a quick conductor of heat, while the dual two-tone bamboo handles provide comfortable, heat-resistant control. Suitable for use on gas, electric, and induction stovetops, this versatile wok is a must-have for any home cook or professional chef looking to elevate their Asian culinary skills.

For those who prefer a slightly different aesthetic, a version with wooden handles is also available, allowing you to choose the option that best suits your kitchen's style. Regardless of the handle material, the Helen's Asian Kitchen Carbon Steel Wok is a durable, high-performing, and sustainable choice for all your stir-frying, sautéing, and deep-frying needs.
