The popular De Buyer iron pans are now also available in wok format! Just like De Buyer's Mineral B iron pans, these woks are eco-friendly, recyclable, offer 100% natural cooking, are free of non-stick coatings, heat up very quickly, and are for a lifetime.
Cooking in a wok is about quickly sealing the food, and that's best done with an iron pan like this: iron is the material that retains the most heat, so not only does it heat up very quickly and retain a lot of heat, but that heat quickly seals the food, resulting in fabulous stir-fried vegetables, meats, and fish - you'll see how they turn golden on the outside, crispy, and full of flavor and nutrients inside. That's why authentic Asian woks are made of iron!
- Handcrafted in iron.
- No use of chemicals or strange coatings, or heavy metals,
- Treated with a layer of natural beeswax that protects the pan from the factory to your home.
- With use, they acquire a patina that makes them naturally non-stick.
- Ideal for browning or roasting meats as well as stir-frying vegetables or making fried eggs.
- Suitable for all heat sources including induction.
- They can be put in the oven (can be placed in the oven at 200°C for ten minutes).
This is an authentic traditional iron wok that will last you a lifetime and give you wonderful sealing results. It's not a lightweight pan, but it's worth its weight in gold, and it will last you a lifetime at home!
Remember that we have a protective cover for the handle of De Buyer iron pans, which will help you avoid burning yourself when handling the pan.
Why we like the De Buyer Mineral B Iron Wok
- A wok, like an iron skillet, lasts a lifetime if we take good care of it. It is a guaranteed investment.
- Its deep, sloped design makes it ideal for keeping food warm on its walls.
- With De Buyer iron mineral woks our kitchen is more professional. We can dream that we are Ratatouille.
- The 32cm and 40cm models incorporate a handle at the other end of the handle for greater ease when holding it.
Things to Know About De Buyer Mineral B Iron Pans
- De Buyer pans are made in France, and they are the only ones with a purity certificate of over 99% iron. The best!
- They are iron pans, so they can rust. How to prevent it? Avoid prolonged contact with water, don't let them air dry: simply dry them with a cloth after washing. If you want, you can leave them on low heat for a few minutes again to completely remove the moisture while finishing cooking (it's a very easy trick to follow and very useful).
- If you're going to leave them unused for many days, you can apply a little oil and spread it over the surface with a paper towel, but it's not essential.
- Before the first use, it's very interesting to season them. This seasoning makes them more naturally non-stick. Seasoning is super simple to do. Watch the video among the photos to learn how to do it.
- You have a pan for a lifetime! You can scrub it with a soft sponge, or wash it with soap if needed to remove food, and nothing will happen to the pan! (there's no non-stick coating to damage). They can turn black, uniformly or in patches. Don't worry, the blacker they get, the better they will perform.
- If rust spots appear, rub with a paper towel with oil, and you'll see how it magically disappears. If the rusted area is larger, use soap without fear. Nothing will happen; it's a completely iron pan: under the iron layer, there's more iron.
- If you've had to scrub it with soap or if you simply feel like it, you can season it again, but it's not essential to do it regularly.
