Frequently Asked Questions
What size of steel woks is best for standard restaurant stir-fry service?
A 14" to 16" steel wok handles most commercial stir-fry portions. Larger steel woks are useful for high-volume Asian kitchens cooking multiple servings per toss.
Should I choose carbon steel woks or stainless steel woks?
Carbon steel woks are the traditional choice for stir-frying. They heat quickly, develop a natural non-stick seasoning, and handle the extreme temperatures needed for proper wok cooking.
Do steel woks work on all types of commercial cooktops?
Carbon steel woks work on gas, electric, and induction. For wok burners with a round-bottom cradle, choose a round-bottom steel wok. Flat-bottom steel woks suit standard flat-top burners.
How do steel woks compare to fry pans for high-heat cooking?
Steel woks distribute heat across a curved surface and allow for quick tossing, making them better for stir-frying. Fry pans have a flat cooking surface that is better for searing and saut‚ing.
Can steel woks be used for tasks beyond stir-frying?
Yes. Steel woks are versatile enough for deep frying, steaming, pan frying, and braising. Their high walls and curved shape make steel woks useful for a wide range of cooking techniques.
Is the handle design on steel woks at Zanduco suited for commercial kitchen use?
Commercial steel woks typically feature a long handle for one-handed tossing and sometimes a helper handle for stability. Welded attachments increase durability on steel woks.
Are steel woks from Winco a reliable option for a busy commercial kitchen?
Yes. Winco steel woks are built from heavy-gauge carbon steel with welded handles designed for the demands of professional wok cooking. They are a cost-effective and proven choice.
