Ken Hom is a celebrated American chef and television-show presenter on the BBC, and when it comes to woks he knows a thing or two! Surprisingly, woks are hugely versatile pieces of cookware; suitable for stir frying, steaming, pan frying, deep frying, poaching, boiling, braising, searing, making soup and more. Ken makes his Performance woks from carbon steel, which means they are all the more versatile: carbon steel is a material with outstanding heat conduction, able to generate high heat for high speed cooking – an essential part of stir frying.
