A cast iron wok with a wooden handle? Whatever next?
By jimshatsui
This new arrival was welcomed into our house with some excitement. Even the next-door neighbour wanted to know when it had been safely delivered!It's unusual to find cast-iron woks with a single, long wooden handle - all the ones I've seen in UK stores seem to be of the variety with 2 small 'loop' type handles - so this one really caught my eye. The long-handled type wok is easier to use for stir-frying because you can stir with one hand and lift to transfer with the other, but admittedly you do need to be quite strong! Benefits of cooking with cast iron are well-known i.e. better heat retention and more even dissipation of heat.So how has this little fella measured up?Well, this is a smaller-sized, quite shallow wok as far as woks go - 30cm (12") diameter with a 3.5 litre stated capacity - but considering that this is made of heavy cast-iron and is also designed to be lifted with one hand this is probably an ideal size for use on the average domestic cooker. It's a robust, honest-looking item of hardware. Dare I say that the finish is somewhat rustic? The handle is slightly eccentric, file marks are evident around the rim and the surface is a little rougher than I would have liked (having previously been spoilt with the smooth, perfectly-finished surfaces of Le Creuset and the like).The wok is not supplied with a lid (maybe the Skeppshult company would like to address that?), but I've found that a 28cm domed Pyrex lid will sit nicely just within the rim to turn this into a pan for braising or steaming.That aside, it is a joy to season and to cook with this wok! To be able to heat the oil until it smoked, safe in the knowledge that it wouldn't destroy a non-stick coating or invalidate a manufacturer's warranty is priceless! Ingredients simply sizzle. This is stir-frying as it should be! Try it and you will never go near a non-stick wok again.Great stuff. I hope that with a little care this wok will last for many years to come.
