A real wok is usually made of cast iron and has a round, conical mould with high edges. It is traditionally considered the best choice for woks because the heat is spread evenly and there is less chance of sticking problems. However, they are often more difficult to maintain than other materials, such as stainless steel or aluminum. But if you want to create dishes with authentic flavors, it's definitely worth investing in a real wok. Remember that they often need to be used at high temperatures and greased with oil or other grease before you start cooking. But, if you are willing to put in the time and effort, you will be rewarded with dishes that possess scrumptious flavor.

What is the best wok pan for induction?

There is no specific wok pan that is considered the best for induction. Which wok is best depends on your personal preferences and needs. Here you can think about material, the size and extra features. A good starting point might be to choose a wok pan with a flat bottom suitable for induction cooking.

How do you maintain a wok pan?

We recommend always cleaning a wok pan by hand. This will allow you to enjoy it longer. Clean the pan with warm water and a sponge without detergent or soap. This way it retains its (natural) non-stick coating. Then dry the pan with a clean tea towel. Instead of drying, you can also put it on low heat for 1-2 minutes. Stubborn baking residue can be loosened by heating some salt on the bottom and then removing it with kitchen paper.

What size wok pan do you need?

What size wok pan you need depends on how much you will be cooking and for how many people. If you usually cook alone or with two people, then a smaller wok pan might be enough. But if you often cook for groups of four or more people, you may need a larger wok. Look carefully at the capacity of the wok pan; you can find this in the product information of the specific wok.
