Editorial Review:
Le Creuset's wok has a kiwi color enameled finish, designed with an artist's touch with a slightly curved bowl and two handles that flare out from the sides. It's made of cast iron, revered for its heat-retention property, and comes with a glass lid for sealing-in flavors. Use it for all your stir-fry dishes such as Chicken Chow Mein or a gingered beef dish.

Great wok!:

The heat on the wok, never really went up to the temperature I needed it to be at for the fried chicken, but it did the job nonetheless. It's been great for stir frying and for frying whole fish. I haven't had any problems with my food sticking. I had some problems when I first used it, but I have been spraying a small bit of olive oil... more info
