Product Description
Part of the Classic Series by Joyce Chen, the 14" Flat Bottom Wok is the perfect combination of size, features and function. The natural carbon steel surface duplicates a more authentic wok cooking surface - seasoning is required. These sturdy carbon steel pans will deliver excellent cooking performance and feature a long Birch wood handle and side helper handle for easy lifting. The handles are designed to stay cool on the stovetop, so you can easily remove the pan from the burner without using potholders. Its curved sides diffuse heat and extend the cooking surface, which helps with tossing and stirring. The great depth allows ample room to cook a whole fish, if so desired. Simmering, deep frying, or steaming, are just a few of its multiple uses. Joyce Chen's slogan "Eastern Cookware for the Western Kitchen," reflects her focus on providing high-quality, versatile tools and products that have Asian flair, but can be used in a western kitchen. Today, Joyce Chen Products come from all over the Pacific Rim to bring the best of Asia to you. Joyce Chen opened her first restaurant in Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1958. The restaurant flourished, and in 1973 a larger Cambridge restaurant was opened. Chen also began writing Chinese cookbooks and in the 1970s began hosting a cooking show on public television. She found that the selection and quality of Chinese cookware in America didn't live up to her high standards so she developed her own.

Joyce Chen Classic Series 14 Inch Carbon Steel Wok Reviews
| 12 of 12 people found the following review helpful  Great all-purpose carbon steel wok, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Joyce Chen Classic Series 14 Inch Carbon Steel Wok (Kitchen) Been using this for 2 months, love it. It is everything you expect it to be. Few comments worth thinking about before buying:1) 1.5mm diameter is actually quite thick compared to thinner 1mm diameter woks. Heats up slower, distributes heat more evenly, is heavier to lift. 1.5mm is good for slightly longer stir frys, I find 1mm to be handy for very quick flash stir frys. 2) This wok is moderately heavy to lift if you like to toss when stir-frying. It's more of a stationary wok but the handles are solid and function all the same. 3) Treating is a pain but a necessary step for all carbon steel woks. Treating this one is no different than any others. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful  really happy, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Joyce Chen Classic Series 14 Inch Carbon Steel Wok (Kitchen) Quality: The wok is excellent. It sits well on an electric burner and heats quickly for good stir frying. We don't flip it to toss food so we haven't noticed a weight problem. Have you noticed that some frying pans tilt on a burner because the handle is too heavy compared to the pan? That doesn't happen with this wok. The wooden handle is substantial but there is no wobbling.Seasoning: The initial process was a little time consuming, but since then we can clean it with just hot water and a cloth. Works great! Then I warm it and wipe it with a little oil. Cleanup is amazingly easy and fast. No rust problems here. We got our seasoning instructions from Eating Well Magazine. Cost: I think this is a great price and when you add free Prime shipping, wow. Recommendation: It's used in and recommended by the Eating Well test kitchen. We agree - highly recommended. Assembly: Ours came with the handle assembled which meant the box was huge. Thank...

As long as you take the proper steps to season it (which I think is where most wokkers fail), this wok is a great addition to the kitchen. I love that it has a regular handle instead of two helper handles as I can never flip properly with those helper handles. I could do without the wooden accents on the handles, however. That makes it not a good fit for oven cooking if you wanted to throw it in the oven for a spell.Other than that, I love it! Make sure you season it, make sure you get a proper wok burner for it so you can generate enough heat, and don't ever wash it with soap!! |
