Yamada Iron Hammered Double-Handle Wok
Made in Yokohama, Japan. Safe for all heat-surfaces, but optimal over gas or fire, each wok is hammered over 5,000 times to provide various thicknesses depending on the part of the wok to ensure that the cooking heat is transmitted evenly.
Shipped with a protective varnish to prevent them rusting during storage and transport, this layer needs to be burnt off over high heat to expose the bare metal underneath and then thoroughly seasoned before first use.
