13 best premium woks
Premium woks are high-quality cooking vessels that are specifically designed for stir-frying and other cooking techniques commonly used in Asian cuisine. They are an essential tool in many kitchens, and their design and construction contribute significantly to the quality of the dishes prepared in them. Here are some key features and information about premium woks:
Materials: Premium woks are typically made from durable materials like carbon steel, cast iron, or stainless steel.These materials offer excellent heat retention and distribution, which are crucial for even cooking.
Shape: Woks have a distinctive shape with a wide, shallow cooking surface and high, sloping sides. This design allows for efficient heat distribution and easy tossing of ingredients while stir-frying.
Non-stick Coatings: Some premium woks come with non-stick coatings, which make cooking and cleaning easier. These coatings help prevent food from sticking to the wok's surface.
Heat Source: Woks are designed to work on a variety of heat sources, including gas stoves, electric stoves, and induction cooktops. It's important to choose a wok that is compatible with your specific cooking equipment.
Handles: Premium woks often have long, ergonomic handles for easy handling and tossing of ingredients. Some woks may also have a secondary handle on the opposite side for added stability.
Lid: Many premium woks come with a lid that helps trap heat and steam during cooking. This is particularly useful for steaming, simmering, or braising dishes.
Seasoning: Carbon steel and cast iron woks require seasoning before use to create a natural non-stick surface. This process involves applying oil and heating the wok to create a protective coating.
Care and Maintenance: To maintain the quality of a premium wok, it's important to clean and dry it thoroughly after each use. Some woks are not dishwasher-safe and should be hand-washed.
Versatility: While woks are primarily used for stir-frying, they can also be used for a wide range of cooking techniques, including deep-frying, steaming, and boiling.
Brands: There are several reputable brands that offer premium woks, including Joyce Chen, Helen Chen, Lodge, and many others. The choice of brand often comes down to personal preference and budget.
When shopping for a premium wok, consider your cooking needs, the type of stove or cooktop you have, and the materials and features that best suit your cooking style. With proper care and use, a premium wok can be a versatile and long-lasting addition to your kitchen.

User questions & answers
Question: | Do you sell the handles? The handle on my pan is loose even if I tighten it |
Answer: | A quick search on web produced a result: http://riverlight.co.jp/en/kitchen_tool.php Good luck! |
Question: | Will I be getting one with the pouring "mouth" on the left or on the right? Thanks |
Answer: | Thank you for your inquiry. This is Shift Co., Ltd. It is possible to send this item to New Zealand. Thank you. |
Question: | where can I buy handle replacement |
Answer: | Thank you for the great question. The main difference is in the strength of the green tea flavor and the overall smoothness. Akira Matcha has a milder green tea flavor and is overall smoother than Oishi Matcha. Both, Akira and Oishi, are USDA organic. We recommend Akira for sipping, hot or cold tea, or in unsweetened lattes. Oishi Matcha is perfect when mixed with other ingredients as its stronger green tea flavor will be easier to surface. We recommend Oishi Matcha in sweetened lattes, smoothies, desserts, and baking. Oishi Matcha is superior to the typical “cullinary matcha” as it is made from higher quality leaves (first harvest instead of second/third harvest), has less astringency, and produce a more beautiful color (bright green instead of yellowish-green). Amaya Matcha is a non-organic matcha that has even a smoother flavor and a more vibrant green color than Akira, because with non-organic matcha there is a potential of reaching a higher umami profile. Please note that all of our non-organic matcha is tested for safety in Japan, and testing is repeated in the United States. Hope this helps, please let us know if you have any more questions! Your friends at Matcha Konomi :) |
Question: | Can you ship it to New Zealand |
Answer: | 1 oz of matcha equals approximately 30g. The typical serving size is 1/2 tea spoon which is 1g, so total number of servings is 30. The typical beverage size for that 1 serving of matcha is 12 oz. Please note that this can be different from one person to another, some might find that serving size to be too strong and use less than 1/2 tsp, and others might go up to 1 tsp. Please let us know if you have any other questions. |

Product description
In their first film together, screen legends Gene Hackman and Dustin Hoffman face off in this electrifying nail-biter about a ruthless jury consultant who'll do anything to win. With lives and millions of dollars at stake, the fixer plays a deadly cat-and-mouse game with a jury member and a mysterious woman who offer to "deliver" the verdict to the highest bidder.
Based on the bestseller by John Grisham, Runaway Jury is a slick thriller that's exciting enough to overcome the gaps in its plot. The ultimate target has been changed: Grisham's legal assault on the tobacco industry was switched to the hot-button issue of gun control (no doubt to avoid comparison to The Insider) in a riveting expose of jury-tampering. Gene Hackman plays the ultra-cynical, utterly unscrupulous pawn of the gun-makers, using an expert staff and advanced electronics to hand-pick a New Orleans jury that will return a favorable verdict; Dustin Hoffman (making his first screen appearance with real-life former roommate Hackman) defends the grieving widow of a gun-shooting victim with idealistic zeal, while maverick juror John Cusack and accomplice Rachel Weisz play both ends against the middle in a personal quest to hold gun-makers accountable. It's riveting stuff, even when it's obvious that Grisham and director Gary Fleder have glossed over any details that would unravel the plot's intricate design. --Jeff Shannon

THE STORY OF MOOSSE
Rich Heritage
MOOSSE (“moo-seh”) was born in 2016, founded by Jae-ug Byun. The full story, roots and influence go back much further. MOOSSE, which means “cast iron” in Korean, was first sparked when Jae-ug was a young boy playing with scraps of cast iron metal at his father’s foundry. His father, Il-goo Byun, had started a humble business in 1973 recycling scrap metals. By the 90’s, Daehan Special Metal Co., Ltd. was recognized as one of the top foundries in all of Korea.
By 1998, Jae-ug had taken over the company and continued the now 46 years of metal expertise and production his father had begun. With the advanced casting technology they developed, Daehan produced cast iron components for automobiles, ships, and industrial uses that require the highest quality and precision. Daehan has supplied Hyundai, Kia, Rolls-Royce, and General Electric, among other manufacturers.
Success in the world of metals forged much of Jae-ug’s passion and vision, but he also greatly loved cooking which drew him to cast iron cookware. He would find himself wandering the kitchen section of stores, like it was fate calling to him. Years later, MOOSSE made his dream a reality, bringing the beauty and deep tradition of Korean cookware to the world, forged from the finest materials and latest technology.
East Meets West in Superior Cookware
When the family metal expertise became fused with a love of cookware, Jae-ug soon recognized that there were no nationally recognized cast-iron cookware brands in Korea. Modern, light cookware had replaced the traditional, heavy, and often very large Korean cauldrons, called Gamasots. This was not surprising, as cast iron can be difficult to use; along with its weight, it requires constant maintenance.
But then he had a creative idea: What if cutting edge technology combined with years of metal expertise could produce a cast iron cookware that is lighter and user-friendly, yet features the age-old Gamasot strength and durability? Enter MOOSSE which solves this problem with advanced coating techniques and superior thin-wall casting technology. MOOSSE drew from Meehanite casting engineering, a unique and exact cast iron processing method born in the West and dating back 95 years. Daehan had improved upon it with the family’s own long experience and techniques.
MOOSSE united this technology and engineering of the West with the deep and beautiful Korean tradition, design and craftsmanship that dates back over two thousand years. It’s a beautiful synergy between East and West, resulting in a one-of-a-kind cast iron cookware for every kitchen in the world.
