The best woks are chinese cast iron woks and carbon steel ones. People should forget the expensive designer woks and focus on the good stuff.

Let's see this guy use that stainless steel wok on medium heat to cook Chinese, and have a Chinese chef use a carbon steel wok and make the same dish. See if they taste the same. I guarantee that the dishes won't taste the same.

Cooking with stainless sucks

Carbon steel has a much higher thermal conductivity than SS. There's probably copper or some such in that wok for better heat transfer, but that manifests itself in the price, $250 as compared to about $20 for carbon steel.

just ordered this wok and let me tell you all....This WOK kick ass with WOLF gas range...perfect match.

@BartImpson——Totally agree! The best dishes, with wok hei, will come from carbon steel over very high heat. Stainless will NEVER get you there...!

[BartImpson]

There is no such thing as carbon iron woks.

Makes sense to me - I've ordered my large Demeyere wok having used my carbon iron wok these past two years but always looking for better ways.

Buying through 125 West (in the US) takes 3 weeks shipping from Belgium but the wait is well worth it.

Do have a look at their other videos.

This guy is a tool.

[BartImpson]

Well the first spatula he showed anyways. And he is also wrong about wok cooking at extremely high heat is bad. The high is how you achieve the wok hei in Chinese cooking. Not because the carbon steel is bad at conducting heat.
