Ken Hom is a celebrated American chef and television-show presenter on the BBC, and when it comes to woks he knows a thing or two! Surprisingly, woks are hugely versatile pieces of cookware; suitable for stir frying, steaming, pan frying, deep frying, poaching, boiling, braising, searing, making soup and more. Ken makes his Performance woks from carbon steel, which means they are all the more versatile: carbon steel is a material with outstanding heat conduction, able to generate high heat for high speed cooking – an essential part of stir frying.

| Cleaning Care | Season first: Use a steel scrubbing pad and dish soap to remove the coating that comes with unseasoned woks. Rinse with hot water. Dry the wok thoroughly to prevent rusting by placing it over low heat for 1 to 2 minutes until no water droplets are visible. Place wok on stove burner and set on high. Your wok is ready to begin seasoning when flicking water droplets into the wok evaporates within 1 to 2 seconds. Remove the wok from the heat. Once it has cooled for a few minutes, add 2 tablespoons of oil. Swirl oil to coat the bottom and all the sides. Repeat this step again and rinse with hot water (no dish soap). Set on low heat for 1 to 2 minutes until no water droplets are visible. Hand wash only, dry thoroughly and wipe with oil to ''seal'' surface. |
