36cm Pre-Seasoned Carbon Steel Wok

School of Wok · £45

A large pre-seasoned carbon steel wok with a wooden handle.

Nice, but provisional

Thirty-six centimetres of pre-seasoned carbon steel for £45, which is the same money as the hand hammered thirty and six centimetres more pan. The reason it is not the pick is the surface: smooth rather than hammered, so there is nowhere to rest cooked food while you fry the next thing. A good pan with less to it.

For
Someone who wants the extra size and does not cook in stages.
Not for
Anyone who would use the hammered ridges, which cost the same.

Marked provisional: the justification rests on 1 source(s); two independent ones is the bar. We publish it anyway and say so, rather than waiting for evidence that may never arrive.
