YOSUKATA Pre-Seasoned Black Carbon Steel Wok Pan – Flat Bottom Stir Fry Wok with Wooden Handle
The YOSUKATA Flat Bottom Carbon Steel Wok is a versatile cooking pan designed for preparing stir-fries, noodles, fried rice, vegetables and a wide range of Asian-inspired dishes. Manufactured from durable black carbon steel, it provides responsive heating and supports the high-temperature cooking techniques commonly used for stir-frying and searing.
Featuring a flat base for stable positioning on compatible hobs and an ergonomic New Zealand beech wood handle, this wok combines traditional cooking performance with practical everyday handling. Its factory pre-seasoned surface provides a starting point for developing a natural cooking patina through continued seasoning and regular use.
Please Note: Although factory pre-seasoned, this carbon steel wok requires additional seasoning with cooking oil before first use. It does not have a permanent synthetic non-stick coating. Hand washing, thorough drying and light oiling are essential to maintain the surface and help prevent rust.

-
After Cooking: Allow the wok to cool sufficiently before cleaning with warm water and a soft sponge.
-
Dry Thoroughly: Remove all moisture immediately after washing to help prevent rust formation.
-
Apply a Thin Oil Layer: Lightly oil the carbon steel surface before storage to help maintain the protective seasoning.
-
Avoid Dishwashers: Do not place the wok in a dishwasher or leave it soaking in water.
-
Maintain the Seasoning: The surface may change colour and develop a darker patina over time. This is a normal characteristic of seasoned carbon steel cookware.
-
Storage: Keep the wok in a clean, dry location.
Important Information
- Factory pre-seasoning is not the same as a fully developed non-stick cooking surface. Additional oil seasoning is required before first use.
- Carbon steel can develop rust if left wet or stored without appropriate care.
- The appearance and colour of the cooking surface may change naturally as the seasoning develops.
- Check compatibility with your hob manufacturer's cookware requirements before use.
- Use appropriate heat-resistant protection when handling the wok during or immediately after cooking.
- Do not expose the wooden handle directly to flames or excessive heat.
- Hand washing and regular surface maintenance are recommended to preserve the wok's condition.
