YOSUKATA 36 cm Round Bottom Carbon Steel Wok Pan – Blue Pre-Seasoned Pow Wok for Stir Fry, BBQ, Grill & Camping – Traditional Japanese & Chinese Cookware – Compatible with Gas Stoves & Open Fire Only

Good, expect some weight I wanted to move away from traditional non-stick pans, so I decided to try a carbon steel option. I chose the Yosukata wok, and I’m very pleased with it overall. It’s made of pure carbon steel with no coatings, feels solid, and is beautifully crafted. After proper seasoning, it develops a natural non-stick surface that makes cooking enjoyable, and the food turns out great. Just keep in mind that this wok is quite heavy, and the handle is angled upwards more steeply than on a regular frying pan. At first, this made it a bit awkward to toss food the traditional way. My simple solution: I hold the handle steady and stir ingredients with a wooden spatula - works perfectly fine. With proper care - washing with warm water, drying thoroughly, and lightly oiling before storing - this wok will serve you very well.

Love it, strong and sturdy, and therefore very heavy. Seasoned it as per instructions, with great results, I'm sure the food taste's better, however that could be psychosomatic, as I'm over the mood with my first wok! It ha developed a lovely patina, and looks to last generations. Well recommended.

Complete garbage. The bottom of this wok scratches and immediately becomes non stick no matter how much you season it. The blue coating scratches off, the scratches rust. Look at the other 1 star reviews and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Top quality wok. Highly recommended.

Be aware, this Wok is super heavy. Otherwise, it's fantastic. Make sure you follow the instructions on seasoning.

First time buying a pre-seasoned wok. I wasn't pleased about needing to buy a new one but changing from a gas hob to induction meant I needed a flat-bottomed wok. I carefully followed the instructions before using, and have dried it thoroughly & oiled after use, and after only 4 uses it's already as good to use as my old one was which had had much use over a number of years. Was it absolutely perfectly non-stick the first few times? Not necessarily (depending on what you cook in it) but any food bits will come off. Providing you don't go at it like a hammer & tongs, you can use the scouring side of a washing-up sponge if needed but make sure to dry well & re-season. I'm confident that full non-stick-ness will be achieved with a few more uses. Is the surface still an even dark-blue colour? No, but that doesn't affect the way it functions., and I didn't expect it to be. I'm happy with it and would recommend it.

I love my yasukata wok, it offers great value for money, heat distribution along with none stick qualities

Excellent.

The pot is lighter than normal iron cast and easy to handle. The seasoning process was easy and so far the pot is in great condition after 2 weeks

Very big size not useful for my home i retured it little bit rustic when i received pakage was poor don't know is it true yousukatta product

best pan for everything

Vilken skillnad – till det bättre! Det här är en wokpanna med kvalitet rakt igenom. Den är enkel att bränna in och känns rätt från första användningen. Jag har lagat allt från Pad Thai till friterad mat och resultatet blir jämnt och riktigt bra varje gång. Den håller värmen utmärkt och ger den där äkta wok-känslan man annars saknar hemma. Enda lilla minuset är att den är tung, men det visste jag redan vid köpet och det är också ett tecken på gediget material. En wok för dig som vill laga på riktigt.

I have been using non-stick wok for a long time. I am getting more and more concerned about the coating that might present cancer-causing risk. I had done a lot of research of a wok that can be long-lasting. Carbon steel wok put me off for quite some time because I thought it would be high maintenance. After getting this wok, I have no regret at all. It took some steps to season it and oil it after each use. But it provides good "wok hey" and is surprisingly easy to wash. A very good item!
