  • I Review THE Top 3 ESSENTIAL Chinese Wok Utensils - And How To Use Them
    We all know that getting a proper Chinese carbon steel wok is a great way to start off your Asian cooking. But what utensils or cooking tools do you use with it? Wooden spoons and spatulas are probably going to slow you down now, but what are the best ones to get?
    Well this video will help you choose the right ones for you - and will show you that actually the one correct tool will probably be enough for most people.
    So sit back and let Michael guide you towards your Chinese cooking heaven.
    Enjoy!

    Hi what wok brand etc do u prefer or recommend

    • @ChowWithLau
      @ChowWithLau  2 года назад

      Hi Dinah - If you want a steel wok this is my favourite and the one I am using in this video amzn.to/3oHPSyW It's really easy to season and maintain. It's not the cheapest but it cooks really well.
      But if you prefer a non-stick wok this Scoville one is the best I have used. The non-stick coating seems to last longer than most amzn.to/3njJlIi
      Hope that helps :)

    my family use a spatula to smash the rice and get rid of the clumps

    • @ChowWithLau
      @ChowWithLau  7 месяцев назад

      Whatever works for you is good with me! The ladle is perfect for me as it’s the right size and weight. It’s also perfect for using with a steel wok as it scoops up rice and other ingredients very easily.
      Keep on wokking! 😊

    Does it scratches the wok? Mine scratches my season :( should smooth it out with a sandpaper? Or am I missing something? I do really like using metal utensils when using my wok. Btw, I have ny carbon steel wok for about a month now and I cook almost everyday with it. Thank you for the video btw..

    • @ChowWithLau
      @ChowWithLau  Год назад +1

      Mine don’t scratch the seasoning. I think the longer you use your wok, the stronger the seasoning gets. Your wok is still quite new so it’ll take a bit more time.
      Glad you’re enjoying your wok cooking and thanks for watching 😊🙏🙏🙏

    What size wok for apartment with electric stove??

    • @ChowWithLau
      @ChowWithLau  Месяц назад

      Depends on how many you’re cooking for. For 1-4 people I would get a 12 inch wok. If you cook regularly for more than 4 people then maybe a 13 or 14 inch wok.
      Hope that helps 😊

      Apologies. The stock seems to fluctuate and Amazon does not inform me so it's impossible to keep track. If you look up wok utensil set on Amazon you should find very similar items. Obviously check the reviews, but I think most of them are good quality. Hope that helps :)
