Oddly enough, I've found that a home electric range with a burner output of about 2500W works fine. My guess the reason is that you're cooking smaller portions. Of course it wouldn't work in a commercial setting. > > Isaac |

Of course my (preheated) wok cools down somewhat when I add (room temperature) ingredients to it - as does any other (preheated) skillet, pan etc. How much it cools down depends on its thermal mass. And yes, when we're stir-frying meat/poultry on maximum heat we *do* cook it in very small batches to try to minimize this problem. How quickly it can recover from a drop in temperature depends on the size of the element (and we use 240V appliances, so we don't have the US restriction of 1500W per outlet max, and this particular wok has a 2000W element - and I don't even find that to have sufficient "oomph" to recover quickly enough). The problem I was talking about, which is what you also mentioned up thread, is keeping a constant temperature without adding or removing anything from the wok - and not only when it's set for maximum heat. For example, if I'm letting something like coconut milk simmer on low heat for a while to reduce it, I have the same problem. The thermostat in an electric wok is an on/off switch, unlike the knob on a gas burner, so the temperature drops to below where I want it to be, then it heats up to almost boiling, switches off, and gradually cools down again. With a gas burner and a suitable wok I could set it to stay at a (more or less) constant temperature. My wok is one of these (exact model) if you're interested: http://www.kenwoodworld.com/en/Produ...ric-Wok/EW200/ or http://tinyurl.com/32zlog4 -- Cheers Chatty Cathy |

BTU/minute is a pretty funky unit. I wouldn't know what to make out of something like 43W/minute but I do know what a 2600W burner going at full blast looks like. I have a question about power. Does it take twice the power to cook twice the amount of food? > >>> An "ordinary" domestic gas stove will have a burner or two capable of, >>> maybe 9,000 BTU. >> >> My GE Profile electric has a main burner of 3,200 watts, or 10,900 BTU.

Well, the other part of that equation is the diameter of the burner. In order to makefull use of that potential, your pan must be at least the diameter of the burner, and those 3200 watt burners are 12 inches in diameter. (My GE, for example, is switchable among 12, 9, and six inches, but you don't get full power at the smaller diameters.) One of the bigger frustrations in buying pots and pans is that advertisers always tell us the volume, but rarely tell us the diameter of the contact circle. -- Larry |

I'm pretty much resigned to the fact that I have to use a small saucepan on a big burner. It's pretty wasteful but I really have to get to work - the small elements just don't cut it. That's the breaks. |

I've had both. I now use a steel wok on a turkey fryer burner. Unless you have a large wok, 14" or larger, I suggest one with a large saucepan style handle. Mine also has a loop handle on the opposite side with a wood grip, but I expect the wood to burn off shortly. nb |

However if it is made of steel, and if you do not have a bird, you can remove any wooden or plastic bits, run it through a self-cleaning oven, brush out any powder that's left after the Teflon goes away, put the wooden or plastic bits back, and _now_ it's a wok. |

Actually not... the steel was chemically etched to a roughness for the non stick coating to attach... all your method does is create scrap metal... and the fumes will probably kill you. |

Can't argue with that, but there sure are lots of people using these strange cooking devices. Even in the local Chinatown, the vast majority of "woks" on display are nonstick. |

There are high-temperature pan surfaces other than Teflon and the like which are marketed as "non-stick." These include the hard black coatings found on Le Creuset grill pans and, more to the point, Le Creuset cast iron woks. -- Larry |

Save your money and storage space, maybe? Hi, I concur with you, electric woks are the best. You can use an electric gourmet wok anywhere as long as there is electricity. This makes them really convenient to use. I recommend you check on the top 6 best electric woks so as to get the best and understand their functionalities. https://itday.com/kitchen/top-6-best...-guide-buyers/ Regards. |

My son recently moved into some kind of hell hole. I bought him a wok to use with his gas range. It is my hope that he learns how to use the range, wok, and oven. My wife said he heated up a store bought pizza the other day. That's a good start. ![]() |

As it goes, I'll probably have to just bread it and deep fry. Stir frying scallops is tricky!
