Wok pan KingHoff KH-1109 cast iron 31 cm diameter

KingHoff KH-1109 cast iron wok pan, 31 cm diameter, is engineered for even heat retention and steady temperature distribution across the cooking surface. The heavy cast-iron construction tolerates high temperatures and delivers steady searing, frying and stir-frying performance on gas and electric cooktops. The wide, gently sloped sides provide ample space for tossing ingredients and reducing splatter, while the deep base supports stews and braises in addition to quick high-heat techniques.

Advantages

The cast-iron body provides consistent heat retention and gradual conductivity for controlled cooking results. Its robust construction is suitable for frequent use at high temperatures and resists warping. The 31 cm diameter offers a balance between capacity and stove footprint, making it suitable for family meals and multi-ingredient dishes. Designed to perform on both gas and electric cooktops, the wok supports a range of cooking methods from searing to slow simmering.

How to use

Preheat the wok gradually on the chosen cooktop to allow cast iron to reach an even temperature before adding oil. Use an oil with a high smoke point for high-heat stir-frying or searing. Add ingredients in batches to avoid overcrowding and maintain high surface temperature for proper browning. After cooking, allow the pan to cool slightly before cleaning; avoid rapid temperature changes. If the wok is seasoned, maintain the seasoning layer by wiping with oil after cleaning and drying thoroughly to prevent rust.

Usage recommendations

For best results, preheat the wok thoroughly and use oils suitable for high temperatures. Clean with warm water and a soft scrubber; avoid harsh detergents that can strip seasoning. Periodically re-season the surface by applying a thin layer of neutral oil and heating to restore non-stick properties and protect the cast iron.
