Details

Saute Asian cuisine to perfection with this Thunder Group 16" 1 piece steel Mandarin wok! No other pan in your kitchen has the versatility that this wok pan offers. Woks aren't just for Asian cuisine anymore; the design of the wok pan is perfect for cooking a variety of dishes. Unlike a traditional skillet, which cooks from the bottom of the pan only, the wok features high, steep edges that cook foods from all sides. There is no substitute for a good wok when you need to saute and serve in large quantities, and this extra strength steel Mandarin wok is the perfect solution.

Designed to be rugged and practically indestructible, this wok is made from one piece steel with reinforced sandwiched welding, giving it the superior durability to stand up to hard use in a commercial kitchen. This material also provides fast, even heating so that you can achieve predictable and consistent results. As food is tossed around the pan, it is cooked quickly and thoroughly due to the even heat distribution. The steel construction means that you will never have to worry about the integrity of this wok degrading, and the coating prevents food from sticking. Your restaurant will be able to use this wok for years to come.

If you haven't invested in a wok yet, you are missing out on a useful tool that allows you to stew, steam, boil, deep fry, and stir fry. Thanks to the tubular handle, this wok is easy to maneuver and comfortable to use for extended amounts of time. This wok's durable, long handle also makes tossing any stir fry simple and safe. The handle also includes a hole to hang your wok for convenient and organized kitchen storage. Great for display cooking, this pan works well for use in both the front and back of the house. Guests will love the unconventionally large, rounded, and deep look of this pan, while chefs will appreciate the smart design!

Attention CA Residents:

Customer questions about this product

How is the top diameter measured in frying pans and woks, and how accurate is this measurement?

The top diameter is the measurement across the pan, from the interior of one side of the rim to the other. These measurements are approximate because many frying pans and woks have a curved upper rim, making precise measurement difficult. The standard naming convention uses top diameter, so while multiple brands may offer a 10" pan, there may be slight variations in size between each brand's 10" pan or wok.

What is a wok ring used for, and how do I decide which is right for me?

A wok ring is used to turn a traditional range into a wok-friendly range. It serves to stabilize your wok and funnel the heat appropriately around the rounded edges as a wok range would. Generally, you want your wok ring's diameter to be 4" smaller than the wok you are using.

What is the appropriate lid size for my wok?

While lid size can be a preference based on what you're cooking, you generally want your lid to be approximately 1" - 2" smaller in diameter than your wok. This is so the lid can securely sit inside the rounded edges of your wok.

What is the difference between a Mandarin wok and a Cantonese wok?

The difference is in the style of the handle. Mandarin woks feature a long stick handle, while Cantonese woks have two small loop handles, giving cooks a choice of whichever best fits their style.

What's the difference between a riveted and a welded handle?

A riveted handle is connected by small metal pieces (called rivets) that are crushed between the handle and the pan body to attach them together. This type of handle is more common on copper and aluminum cookware.

For a handle to be welded, the metal must first be melted and then adhered to the pan body. This creates a strong bond that leaves little to no space in between, so bacteria and other food crumbs can’t collect and cause sanitation issues. Both are long lasting solutions for fry and sauce pan handles because they are durable and can withstand heat.

I initially had my eye on some more designer-type woks. I wanted a wooden handle. I wanted a bit more of a refined wok. Then I remembered: I've been to China! Those guys are definitely not cooking on anything fancy. I am positive there is a Chinaman right now, cooking on a wok he fashioned from the hood of an old car. So anything basic will do. This wok is no-frills, but clearly gets the job done. My one gripe is the factory-applied oil that needs to be burned off prior to seasoning. It is difficult to remove this completely - it took me about fifteen minutes of holding it at odd angles over my flame. Possibly this could be handled by baking the wok in a hot oven, but the instructions that came with the wok said to burn it off, so that's what I did. When I made my first attempt at seasoning the wok (with shortening), you could clearly see the areas where the factory oil had not burned off. Overall, it's a sturdy, affordable wok.

This is a great work once seasoned and treated properly before using. Please read and follow manufacturers instructions carefully. I use it hundreds of times a week and it performs very well. Totally worth the price. Gets better with use. Very little sticking and easy cleanup.

This 14” Iron Mandarin Wok works well for dishes that require high heat when preparing. My first time using this wok, I made a whole30 recipe “Egg Roll In A Bowl” and it turned out great! I was able to use about 6 Cups of combined ingredients with plenty of room to spare in this wok.
