| | Wok - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Heat retention is a vital attribute of a wok in stir frying. | | | Woks are also sold in western countries, where they are sometimes found with flat bottoms and/or nonstick coatings. | | | These woks are easily scratched and cannot be use to cook in the high heat required for stir frying (to excess of 450F) since the coating will burn. |

| | Wok - Use and Care |
| | It is as if the wok has stored memories of the many meals it has cooked and calls on this storehouse of experience to enrich the food it is now asked to cook. | | | You may also avoid the risk of burning in overheated oil the garlic and onions, which should be added early on to flavor the oil, and in turn for the oil to flavor the meats, seafoods or vegetables to be stir-fried in it. | | | With an average-size wok and a hot burner, you can cook for two, four, six or even eight, but if you use a flat skillet, you will need different size pans for cooking different quantities. |

| | RecipeSource: The Care and Feeding of Woks |
| | The ultimate goal is for the wok to impart wok hay, an elusive pan flavor and aroma that is associated with Chinese restaurant dishes. | | | Some manufacturers apply a coating that is hard to remove, so set the wok on the stove, fill it with water and boil it for several minutes until the coating dissolves. | | | Until a wok takes on a shiny, smooth, black patina, the initial seasoning must be strengthened by frequent use of the pan, and fortified by an occasional light re-seasoning. |

| | Shelly Sinton: Wok on the Wild Side |
| | Wok cooking is synonymous with stir-fry, which is a high heat, low fat method of cooking that results in intensely flavored and vibrantly colored meals boasting vitamins, minerals, other healthful components. | | | The materials and shape of woks allow for better distribution of heat, minimal fat for cooking, and the ability to cook a large amount and variety of food in a short amount of time. | | | Freshness is a hallmark of stir fries best-served immediately. |

| | While the skillet is heating, mix the three tablespoons of soy sauce, the honey or sugar, and the cornstarch together with the half cup of water. | | | To say nothing of the gourmet specialties that can be tipped into a hot wok from time to time: fresh, frozen, or canned shrimp or crabmeat, tinned bamboo shoots and water chestnuts, dried mushrooms, and (from Chinese markets) Szechwan peppers, fivespices seasoning, oyster sauce, Hoisin sauce, and black bean sauce. | | | Much wok cookery centers on leafy vegetables that "cook down" and, while you can always fry small quantities in a giant wok, you can't prepare large amounts in a little one. |
