This carbon steel pow wok is round bottomed with a single, hollow metal handle. Referred to as the Mandarin Wok or Beijing pan since it is most frequently used in Northern China. Perfect for tossing stir fries over a high flame. The hollow metal handle stays relatively cool, but keep a towel handy. Available in 14" or 15.75" diameter. This wok must be seasoned which is easy to do with gas heat; you will get excellent "wok hay," or "wok breath". Gets hot quickly and retains heat.
