Woks date back 2,000 years to the Han Dynasty in China. The word
"wok" means "cooking pot" in Chinese, and the pans are used for a
variety of cooking tasks. While woks are best associated with
making stir-fries in the U.S., any food that benefits from a
centralized heat source and large, consistent cooking area can (and
should!) be cooked in a wok. That means woks used for braising,
making sauces, soups, deep frying, steaming and more.Woks
traditionally have rounded bottoms so it won´t move around on your
stove, and very smooth, rounded edges, perfect for heating quickly
and evenly over a small flame. They typically have long handles
with a hole for hanging that allow them to be shaken during
cooking, and stay cool. The lid is made of tempered glass and can
withstand high temps. A wok with a lid will make your life a lot
easier especially when you cook Chinese food. A lot of time the
ingredients need to simmer and be covered during cooking. So the
wok with a lid will make cooking food much easier.It´s made from
heavy gauge hard-anodized aluminum with three layers of nonstick
coating on the cooking surface for durability, how well non-stick
works will depend on the individual coating and how it is applied.
And of course the nonstick coating helps prevent the food from
sticking and burning, which is a risk when stir-frying.
