Amazon.com Review
Fashioned with a handsome profile and a rugged build, this Asian Kitchen carbon steel lidded wok provides a smart-performing traditional tool for high-heat cooking. Created by Helen Chen, daughter of Chinese cooking pioneer Joyce Chen, the 14-inch piece is crafted from heavy-gauge 1.6 mm carbon steel for speedy conduction. As opposed to nonstick pans, this material does require seasoning but with a little initial help from the cook provides an optimum surface for searing and stir-frying.
Flat-bottomed for stability, this wok features deeply sloped sides and dual heat-resistant handles made of wood. A high-domed lid allows for steaming and accommodates bamboo steam baskets comfortably. The set also includes a 13-inch bamboo spatula and recipe booklet. For best results, both wok and lid should always be washed by hand. --Emily Bedard

| 52 of 54 people found the following review helpful  Great Wok!, By Chance "naturedoc2002" (Western US) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Helen Chen's Asian Kitchen 14-inch Carbon Steel Flat Bottom Lidded Wok Set (Kitchen) This is a great wok. The carbon steel is easy to season, making it virtually non-stick (without the chemicals), the flat bottom means it is stable while sitting on a burner, and the heft keeps it from slipping around. The domed lid is great for steaming, and there is ample space inside for a bamboo steamer.I priced these in retail stores in the area, as well as other outlets online, and this sells for at least a competitive price. 39 of 40 people found the following review helpful Professional grade wok for half the cost, By This review is from: Helen Chen's Asian Kitchen 14-inch Carbon Steel Flat Bottom Lidded Wok Set (Kitchen) I honestly felt like I was stealing from somebody when I clicked the "purchase" button. After researching the best equipment for Asian cooking, the experts concluded that the carbon steel flat bottom wok scored top marks with professional chefs. The idea is to season the wok (you can find out how to do this on about.com) instead of purchasing a teflon coated one. I cannot emphasise how important this step is if you want to create the perfect Singapore Noodles or Chow Mein! You will be cooking like a pro in no time, for almost no cost at all. 28 of 28 people found the following review helpful  Great Chinese Cooking, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Helen Chen's Asian Kitchen 14-inch Carbon Steel Flat Bottom Lidded Wok Set (Kitchen) This is a great wok for the price. Be sure you follow the instructions and "season" it well first so nothing sticks. Also you need to immediately dry it after washing. Other than that I am thrilled with the wok. |
