Product Description

Turn the burner all the way up. This carbon steel wok was made to handle high heat. This means that you can get that perfect Maillard reaction (aka browning) on sliced meats without overcooking. Stronger than cast iron, it’s also lighter and therefore more nimble, tossing veggies and rice with ease. At 14 inches, this large carbon steel wok can serve up a very generous meal. All this wok asks in return is that you season its uncoated surface regularly, and it will reward you with a deep and beautiful patina.

"...You NEED to season it. If you don't, it will rust, no matter what. Seasoning is not heating some oil on it, or rubbing some oil while it's hot...." Read more

"...I didn't remember if it is in the instructions. The whole bottom rust after use. For the oven seasoning method I used to put oil on both sides...." Read more

"...coating that MUST be removed before any cooking is done and the pan WILL rust if it isn't seasoned before using. That's an absolute...." Read more

"...First pic taken at 1:44, last pic at 2:04Rusty as heck. I can tell the original buyer did not know how to handle carbon steel...." Read more

I expect to use this a lot
4 Stars
I expect to use this a lot
I wanted a smaller carbon steel wok with a flat bottom to use daily.First, I bought the Amazon used like New selection. When I received it, it was Rusted... and Not like new as advertised.I was originally planning to season it on my high btu outdoor propane stove but it's rainy and very wet outside with rain forecasted next few days.See my pic collage of the seasoning process. First pic taken at 1:44, last pic at 2:04Rusty as heck. I can tell the original buyer did not know how to handle carbon steel.I wet the pan, sprinkled some bar keepers friend and scrubbed (medium strength). It cleaned up nicely. Then I put it on the stove without oil med flame on the outside first and flipped the wok upside down to season the inside. Then I washed it with soap, heated it up and added some oil and green onion (should've added more but it's all I have) until the onion is black.Wash with a drop of soap. And then heat again on med heat (no oil) all over. Just move the pan around. And finally flip it over again and heat the inside for 3 min or so.Done. After the next two times I cook with it, I will do the same. Dry with med heat, flip and add 2 drop of oil and spread w paper towel.Hmmm I'm missing the other little handle.

5.0 out of 5 stars No reason to take stars off
Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2013
It's a round solid bottom carbon steel wok. The handles are solid and well made so far. I love the price and prime delivery. It came all the way from Taiwan. So it keeps all the stars.

I had an non-typical sized 13-inch Chinese cast iron wok for 2 years. 14 inch makes a lot of difference in the volume but still fit reasonably into my twin kitchen sink. My typical wok ring is for 14 inches and above. It was slightly too large for my old wok. Carbonized food residue can integrate with the cast iron or come off in trunks. I think carbon steel should be better.

I would have got the small steel loop handles if they are not more expensive including shipping. For seasoning I can put the whole wok in the oven or the gas barbecue. Also, wood will break down sooner than metal, right? Without the wood handles, it could fit better in the sink. However, the wood handles are much more convenient than without. I can happily live with it.

The wok comes with a clear protective lacquer. The boiling, hot soapy water, and abrasive pad helps to remove most or all of it. I don't know if there's something special about my hand dish detergent - Palmolive pure & clear ultra. When the undiluted detergent make contact with the wok surface, the surrounding area seems to have lacquer still on it. And before the lacquer comes off completely, wiping the wok with kitchen paper towel will result in greenish color on the paper. And when the wok seems to be very clean, it seems to rust on one side (slightly brownish spots) as soon as you are washing the other side.

The seasoning instructions are a bit brief. I would dry the wok first completely before adding oil for example. And they should say what to expect after you season the wok.

Peanut oil has a higher smoke point so I wonder if that would make the kitchen less smokey. I would say the idea of seasoning is to get a least a brown color on the shiny carbon steel surface, black doesn't hurt as long as it is even (see my pic). If you don't do that during seasoning, a proper stir fry will do that for you (unevenly though). The sturdy wood handle is great to manoeuvre the wok to get some brown color on the side. The area near the rim doesn't matter much as it is not hot enough during cooking and food don't get there to be carbonized.

For after use care you don't actually need to put oil on it, as long as you don't use detergent. I dry it by flame because when it is wet, any normal rust will stain the sink.

I don't know why I didn't season the bottom of the wok. I didn't remember if it is in the instructions. The whole bottom rust after use. For the oven seasoning method I used to put oil on both sides. For this one I just smear oil on the bottom and put it under the stove, normal side up.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great wok, a little thin though.
Reviewed in the United States on January 11, 2021
Pretty decent wok. Needs to be seasoned first. I’ve been using cast iron for years so this wasn’t too bad. I cleaned it very well, then wiped it with oil and put it in the oven, upside down at 400 for 10 min, then turned the oven off and let it sit for another 10. I took the main handle off so it would fit better in the oven. Wrap the other one in a wet rag and then foil to hold it in place.
I did this 4 times, then cooked some stir fry and cleaned it. The picture you see is after that.
The wok isn’t as thick as I would like, it has some flex and I feel like with heavier loads, and pick it it up, it could eventually crack or wear out where the handle attaches. But it should be fine for years. The small handle also rattles, which is a slight annoyance. Overall, it’s a really good wok for the price.

UPDATED: I’ve been using this for a few months now. On about the 4th or 5th time I used it, the seasoning started peeling off in the bottom. I transferred the food over before it was too bad, but I knew the seasoning was bad. I put it aside for a while, then when I had time, I scrubbed it with steel wool till the seasoning on the bottom was gone. Basically if it was loose enough to come out, it came out. I then reseasoned it and have been using it for a month or two now, 2-4times a week. The seasoning is not uniform at, and almost doesn’t look seasoned in spots, but I have no sticking issues at all. It just looks like a well used wok you’d see in a restaurant or something. The seasoning peeling may have been my fault, so I’m sticking with my 4/5 star rating. The first photo I before the flaking seasoning. The second is how I’ve been using it. It may look bad, but it does the job fantastically.

5.0 out of 5 stars Por menos de 400 pesos es una ganga. Calidad precio.
Reviewed in Mexico on July 26, 2022
La calidad es muy buena, se siente pesado y aunque es delgado esta bien, se calienta muy rápido, no recomiendo los que traen antiadherentes ya que los woks son para usarse a fuego alto y eso echa a perder el antiadherente.

Ahí vienen las instrucción es mas o menos lo que hice y creo que si funcionó. El video lo dejé hasta la mitad porque si se lleva su tiempo pero se ve como va cambiando de color a azul. En las imagenes se ve como esta nuevo y como quedó al final, después de varios usos se deberá ir quedando negro completamente. Parece que esta sucio pero así es, al tocarlo no se siente pegajoso, se siente liso y resbaladizo.

Primero hay que lavar bien el wok con agua caliente, jabón y estropajo verde o lana de acero. Secar, calentar a fuego medio a que se empiece a quemar o agarrar un tono azulado.
Dejar enfriar y luego poner una capa de aceite en todo el wok y poner al fuego a que humee. Así varias veces 2 o 3. Cocinar unas cebollas, papas o jengibre hasta quemar y ya estará listo para usar. Se puede lavar solo con agua, secar, poner a calentar a fuego bajo y volver a poner una capa de aceite, dejar enfriar y guardar.

Si lo consiguen a un precio similar comprenlo, si lo recomiendo bastante.
