Pre-Seasoned Flat Bottom Wok by Fox Run

Product Description:
This generous sized wok is made of dependable, properly seasoned cast
iron which allows for heat retention, even heat distribution and a
scratch proof *non-stick surface* that can withstand the high
temperatures needed for stir frying. It features a stay cool handle and
built-in helper handle. The cooking surface is suitable for cooking
temperatures of 536 degrees F/280 degrees C. Dishwasher use is not
recommended as this will damage the pre-seasoned surface.

Back in the 90's, I was still in my old apartment, and we had electric
burners, coil type. It took a little longer to heat up, but it did the
job for my wok. I now have natural gas, and I am ever so happy.
