Hammered Iron Woks

Hand Hammered Traditional Chinese Iron Wok

Iron wok is one of the oldest cooking utensils in China for over centuries, famous for its sturdy, long endurance, even heating and most importantly good for health. Because of even thermal conductivity, iron can combine with acids in the food which make the iron in the food 10 times higher to accelerate blood creation. To use iron wok has been taken into medical treatment recommendation of lack of iron anemia disease. 

In addition, the woks are unusual in that they are made from high quality iron in the traditional way, hand beaten with hammers (as opposed to modern ones which are just pressed in a machine with cheap steel) as most craftsman’s fingers are covered in bandages. A web of indentations in the pan show every hammer strike as the craftsman transformed the flat piece of iron into the woks you buy.
