Scanpan Covered Wok 32cm

Design: A covered wok typically features a large, rounded cooking surface with steep, sloping sides that allow for easy tossing and stirring of ingredients. The lid is designed to fit snugly over the wok, helping to trap heat and steam during cooking.

Material: Woks can be made from various materials, including carbon steel, cast iron, stainless steel, and non-stick coated materials. Carbon steel and cast iron are popular choices due to their durability, excellent heat retention, and ability to develop a natural non-stick patina over time.

Size: A wok with a 32cm diameter provides ample cooking space, allowing you to prepare large batches of stir-fries, steamed dishes, soups, and more. The spacious cooking surface is ideal for cooking for families or entertaining guests.

Versatility: A covered wok is a versatile kitchen tool that can be used for a wide range of cooking techniques, including stir-frying, steaming, braising, deep-frying, and simmering. It's suitable for cooking a variety of dishes, from vegetables and meats to noodles and rice.

Cooking Efficiency: The shape of the wok allows for even distribution of heat, ensuring that ingredients cook quickly and evenly. The domed lid helps to trap heat and moisture, resulting in tender and flavorful dishes.

Health Benefits: Cooking with a covered wok requires less oil compared to traditional frying methods, making it a healthier option. The high heat of the wok also helps to retain the nutrients and natural flavors of the ingredients.

Cleaning and Care: Proper maintenance of a covered wok involves seasoning (for carbon steel and cast iron woks), hand washing with warm water and mild detergent, and thorough drying to prevent rusting. Some woks are dishwasher safe, but hand washing is generally recommended to prolong their lifespan.
