Kyoto Katsugu Iron Wok Stir-Fry Pan 28cm

This is an iron stir-fry pan in the style once common in Japanese kitchens. It takes a little more care than a nonstick pan, but it rewards that care: there is no need for the initial dry-heating or oil-seasoning steps that some iron pans require. The more it is used, the more oil becomes worked into the surface, so food sticks less and the pan lasts for years.

To keep the pan practical, the sides have been shaved down as much as possible while still keeping the heat capacity and strength needed for cooking, so it is noticeably lighter than a pan that has not been shaved this way. The handle is made of oak, the same wood used for wooden swords, batons, and drumsticks, chosen for its hardness and resistance to moisture.

The pan measures 28 x 28 x 12 cm (11 x 11 x 4.7 in), holds 4.2 liters (4.4 qt) to the brim, and weighs 1.1 kg (2.5 lb).
