Bodum K0810 Wok User Manual


 
Cast iron is a very hard material that can take extreme temperatures. Although it takes more
time to heat up than other materials, it retains the heat much longer. Further, it guarantees
very even heat distribution. The advantage is that the whole surface becomes hot so that you
can use all inner surfaces of the wok for cooking, including the sides.
Your wok has been given a special one-layer coating which is a mixture of glass and porcelain.
The coating is sprayed onto the cast iron and then burned at a very high temperature.
The wok comes with a steel rack for steaming and keeping food warm (only model K0810) as
well as a glass lid for boiling. The glass lid makes it easy to observe the cooking process.
Your wok serves as a universal pan for frying (and deep frying), boiling, steaming, and cooking
all sorts of food. It can be used on ceramic, gas, electric and induction cookers.
Attention: The Easy Grip handles may become hot!
FIRST USE
Before using your wok the first time for cooking, carefully heat it with an abundant coating of
oil, then let it stand for a while. Once the wok has cooled down, wipe off any excess oil with a
paper towel.
USE
Never use metallic utensils when cooking with your wok. Use wooden or plastic utensils only.
CLEANING
Use only hot water to clean your wok (do NOT use soap) and let it dry completely. Always
clean it immediately after use. Never let it stand filled with water for a long time. After use,
apply a little oil to the iron to keep it looking nice.
Attention: Do not clean your wok in the dishwasher!
