No coating, no induction base, not a pan for the stove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe stainless steel wok\u003c\/strong\u003e has a 35-centimeter diameter and is adapted for Thüros grills. A wok on a kitchen stove is always a compromise. The burner only heats the bottom, the sides remain cool, and this is precisely where the technique for which the wok was built fails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy uncoated is right\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWok cooking means very short cooking at very high heat. Coatings cannot withstand this; they decompose above about 260 degrees Celsius.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUncoated stainless steel does not have this limit. It can withstand the full heat of the coals, and over time, a patina forms that reduces sticking. The trade-off: In the first few weeks, more will stick than with a coated pan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat works in a wok\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStrips of meat, vegetables cut into equal pieces, noodles, rice. Anything that should be ready in two to four minutes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom experience:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heat the empty wok until a drop of water dances on it like a ball, and only then add the oil. Oil heated with a cold wok will burn on instead of separating. The wok is not suitable for slow simmering — it lacks the mass to store heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWooden handle that does not get hot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe handle is made of wood and remains graspable, even when the wok is over the coals. With a continuous stainless steel handle, you would need a cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne restriction follows from this: The wok does not belong in the dishwasher or the oven. Wood tolerates neither well. Washed by hand and wiped dry, it will last for decades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOn the grill instead of in the kitchen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe wok is designed for coals, not for the stovetop. On an electric stove, its round bottom makes it unstable and it only heats at one point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the Thüros grill, it sits in the wok ring grate insert, which lowers it and holds it securely. Without this insert, it would wobble on the grate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe pan for which a charcoal grill is the better stovetop.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thüros","offers":[{"title":"1 piece","offer_id":56361283354950,"sku":"074THU049","price":39.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4960\/1350\/files\/thueros-wok-edelstahl_fc75e7c6-80fe-43f6-aa61-d82035348d39.jpg?v=1776142078","url":"https:\/\/ginusslande.com\/en\/products\/thueros-wok-aus-edelstahl","provider":"genussland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
