WANGYUANJI Cast Iron Wok Pan with Lid, 14.2 Inch Large Flat Bottom Uncoated Stir Fry Skillet, Heavy Duty Chinese Iron Pot for 4-6 People, Detachable Walnut Handle, Induction & Gas Safe — Open-Box, 9% Off

Chemical-free] Metal Utensil Safe (Built for Iron Spatula): Crafted for the "Clang" of traditional cooking. Since the raw iron surface is 100% Chemical-Free and scratch-resistant, we include an Authentic Iron Spatula. Unlike delicate coated pans, you can scrape, toss, and stir-fry aggressively to release maximum flavor without fear of peeling. 14.2" Diameter (Ideal for 4-6 People): Featuring a wide 36cm (14.2") opening, this wok is perfectly sized for medium-to-large families. It provides ample space to toss ingredients freely without spilling. The deep walls help contain oil splashes, ensuring a mess-free stovetop during heavy cooking. Walnut Handles & Heat Conductivity: The Detachable Main Handle stays cool during stir-frying. However, for slow stews and braising, the massive iron body conducts heat evenly throughout, including the Fixed Helper Handle. This thermal efficiency is key to flavor, but it means the side handle WILL GET HOT. Always use a pot holder for safety. Ancient Casting Pores (The Secret to Non-Stick): Molten iron is hand-poured into clay molds. You may see tiny pinholes or a rugged texture. This is NOT a defect. These "breathing pores" are vital—they absorb grease to build a Natural Non-Stick Seasoning (Patina). The more you use it, the blacker and smoother it becomes. Routine Maintenance Required: This wok is alive. To maintain the non-stick patina, it requires care. 1. Wash: Scrub off the factory pre-oiled protective layer before first use. 2. Dry: Heat on the stove to evaporate moisture immediately. 3. Oil: Apply a thin coat while warm to prevent rust. WANGYUANJI: The Art of Living Iron
This is not a disposable pan; it is a kitchen companion that grows with you.
Crafted by pouring 1650°C Molten Iron into Handmade Mud Molds, this 14.2-inch wok is a tank—dense, heavy, and built for generations.

The "Breathing" Iron (Why Tiny Pores Matter)
When you inspect the surface, you might see small pinholes or a rough texture.
Do not panic. This is NOT a defect.
Unlike machine-stamped pans, our ancient casting process leaves these "breathing pores." They work like a sponge to absorb oil and grease, helping you build a durable, Natural Non-Stick Patina faster.

Safety & Performance: Hot Handles
* Main Handle: Detachable Solid Walnut. Stays cool during quick stir-fries.
* Helper Handle: Fixed Solid Walnut.
* Note: Because cast iron retains heat so well for stewing, the helper handle will get hot over time. This proves the pot is heating evenly. Please ALWAYS use a pot holder.

Maintenance: The More You Use It, The Better It Gets
Raw iron needs love. It must be oiled frequently.
1. Wash: Remove the factory pre-oiled layer with warm soapy water before first use.
2. Dry: Never air dry. Heat on the stove to evaporate all moisture.
3. Oil: Rub a thin layer of oil over the entire surface while warm.
