Ken Hom Excellence carbon steel, seasoning woks combine practicality with the centuries old tradition that lies at the heart of Chinese cooking, seasoning your wok.
Originally woks, like this one, developed their own non-stick surface from the build up of carbon deposits, a process known as “seasoning”.
This wok must be seasoned before use and will then develop its own non-stick coating over time.
