The Wok (kuo in Mandarin) literally means "a vessel in which food is cooked" and is a utensil originating from China. It has the perfect shape for stir-frying, stewing, boiling, or steaming. Its great versatility allows for a wide range of culinary possibilities. Its wide and deep shape creates different temperature zones: hotter at the base, where food browns quickly, and milder on the sides to keep food warm once cooked.
