Woks

Woks are an invaluable cooking tool for all amateur or professional cooks. Woks are traditionally used for Chinese cooking, yet thanks to their incredible heat distribution techniques, wok cookware has been employed for other cooking methods as well. Very little oil is required to use a wok; this ensures healthy and fast cooking. When you begin cooking with your wok, the first step is to season it with special wok oil. The best ways to cook with a wok include these methods: Stir frying – The classic way of creating a meal in a wok. This delivers a rich, smoky flavour that is quick to prepare and always pleases the taste buds. Steaming – By combining a bamboo steamer and a wok, food can be created with no oil at all. This is one of the healthiest ways of cooking and a great way of steaming fish. Deep frying – Not the healthiest way of cooking, but certainly the tastiest. Food develops a crunchy texture and a golden brown coating that ensures a delicious appeal to the taste buds.
