Compatible with induction, gas, ceramic and electric hobs. The Pekaji has a flat, magnetic base that makes full contact with the cooking zone, with no loss of heat conduction.
Carbon steel is the material of the traditional wok: it heats fast, reacts immediately to temperature changes and holds its heat when you add cold ingredients. That's what makes the difference when you're searing meat or stir-frying over high heat. The hammered pattern on the Pekaji is the mark of forging rather than added decoration. The flat base makes full contact with the induction zone, with no loss of magnetic surface.
The Pekaji has no non-stick layer, no PTFE and no ceramic top coat. Bare carbon steel. Once seasoned, a natural patina builds up and gets stronger with every use. Looked after properly, this wok cooks better after a few years than it did on day one.
A coated pan goes the other way: it scratches after a couple of years and ends up in the bin.
A new carbon steel wok ships with a thin coat of oil to stop rust. First, wash the wok thoroughly with hot water, washing-up liquid and a brush. Then dry it, rub a thin layer of high-smoke-point oil over it, and heat until the wok smokes. Repeat 2 to 3 times. Don't skip this step.
The long wooden handle stays cooler than a metal one and gives you a secure grip when you're stir-frying over high heat. There's a metal loop at the end so you can hang the wok to dry, which is the quickest way to keep rust away. The handle and lid are wood and don't go in the dishwasher: hand-wash and dry.
The 28 cm suits 1 to 2 people. The 30 cm is 1 cm deeper, so it gives you noticeably more room to toss ingredients, for 3 to 4 people. Both sizes come with a solid wooden lid, so you can steam and simmer as well.
Usable capacity is the practical fill level for stir-frying, not the volume to the brim. Both sizes stay light enough to lift and toss the wok while you're cooking.
Uncoated carbon steel and the dishwasher don't mix, and the wooden lid and handle don't belong there either. Clean the wok with hot water and a soft brush, dry it straight away and wipe on a light film of neutral oil. Less than two minutes of routine that protects the patina you've built up.

4.8/5 from 265 The Wok House customer reviews, across all products
Delivered within a week and came securely packaged. Very impressed with the wok itself which seems well made and of good quality. Have taken the time to make sure it was properly seasoned before first use and it has performed excellently. Highly recommended.
Really pleased with the wok . Looks great , love the wooden lid but above everything- it works a treat !
I bought a wok from this company and it was damaged when i received it, the company dealt with my problem in a very fast and professional manner, I was very impressed with their service and the cook book is wonderful
I love cooking with this wok. It's great for my vegetarian stir-fries, and nothing sticks to the bottom.
Excellent quality, very happy with my purchase. Great customer service, the free digital cook book is a nice touch.
Excellent quality! I bought this for my brother who’s on a plastic free journey, he followed all the instructions and now it’s all he uses. I’m going to order one for myself now.
It is essential. Wash it in hot water with washing-up liquid and a brush to remove the protective oil, dry it, coat it with a thin layer of high smoke point oil and heat until it smokes. Repeat two or three times.
Yes. Its flat base is magnetic: it works on induction, gas, ceramic and electric hobs.
The 28 cm suits 1 or 2 people and weighs 1.1 kg. The 30 cm, one centimetre deeper, serves 3 to 4 people and weighs 1.25 kg.
By hand, for the wok, its handle and its lid. Wash it in hot water with a soft brush, dry it straight away, then wipe on a light film of neutral oil. The ring on the handle lets you hang it up to dry.
