This cast iron wok heats more evenly and has better heating retention than typical carbon steel woks, allowing you to flash-fry vegetables and meat for authentic, Chinese stir-fry meals. The higher, more consistent temperatures achieved by the cast iron produce crispier vegetables and meat with superior browning. The wok's pre-seasoned cooking surface is naturally nonstick and more durable than Teflon coatings that scratch easily and peel over time. The wok comes with a removable stainless steel rack and a tempered glass lid, allowing you to steam and sauté food simultaneously. The 14 1/2"-diameter wok cooks four servings of stir fry at once, it works on a gas, electric, or induction stove, and has dual stainless steel handles for a confident grip. 19 1/2" W x 14 1/2" D x 4" H. (13 3/4 lbs.)
