Joyce Chen Classic Series 14-Inch Wok with Birch Handles

This carbon steel wok is designed for exclusive use with Asian-style stovetops or wok rings, featuring a traditional round bottom. Measuring 1.8mm in thickness, the steel gauge is stronger, lighter, and thinner than the compositions typically found in traditional woks.

Over time and with proper care, the uncoated surface will develop a unique seasoning, contributing to the wok's exceptional performance and longevity. The solid birch wood handle, along with a helper handle, can be removed to allow for oven use, offering versatility in the kitchen.

To ensure the wok remains in top condition for years to come, it is essential to handwash it soon after use and wipe away any residual moisture. This simple maintenance routine will help preserve the wok's integrity and prevent rusting or other damage.

The carbon steel construction not only provides superior strength and durability but also offers exceptional heat conduction and distribution. This allows for efficient and even cooking, whether you're stir-frying, searing, or preparing a wide range of Asian-inspired dishes.

The traditional round bottom design of the wok is a hallmark of its Asian heritage, optimizing its performance on stovetops or wok rings specifically designed for this shape. This shape also facilitates the characteristic wok hei, or "breath of the wok," which imparts a unique smoky, caramelized flavor to your culinary creations.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this carbon steel wok is a testament to the timeless craftsmanship and functionality that have made Asian cookware a staple in kitchens around the world. Its versatility and durability make it an indispensable tool for any home cook or professional chef aspiring to master the art of Asian cuisine.

Whether you're searing meat, stir-frying vegetables, or creating complex, multi-layered dishes, this carbon steel wok will become an invaluable addition to your culinary arsenal. Its ability to withstand high heat and its even heat distribution ensure consistent, restaurant-quality results every time you step into the kitchen.
