Tsubame Sanjo Hammered Nitrided Carbon Steel Induction Wok - 30cm
Tsubame Sanjo Hammered Nitrided Carbon Steel Induction Wok - 30cm
As seen with Adam Liaw. The body is hand-hammered to stiffen it against warping, the wooden handle unscrews for storage, and a printed English user guide comes in the box — the only wok in our range that includes one.
The 1.6mm steel carries a nitriding treatment that hardens the surface and resists rust, so it seasons readily from the first use. Made in Tsubame-Sanjo, and suited to stir-frying, searing, and steaming on all cooktops, including induction.
What's Included
- 1 x Tsubame Sanjo Hammered Nitrided Carbon Steel Wok - 30cm
- 1 x English User Guide
Steam with it: add the Pearl Life Bamboo Steamer with the 30cm Adapter Ring, which seats bamboo steamers securely over this wok.
Key Features
- English User Guide Included: Printed seasoning and care instructions supplied in the box.
- Hand-Hammered Finish: The hammered texture stiffens the body and helps it resist warping under high heat.
- Nitrided for Rust Resistance: The steel is heat-treated with nitrogen for added hardness and rust resistance.
- Detachable Handle: The wooden handle can be removed for compact storage.
- Induction Compatible: Suitable for all cooktops, including gas, electric, ceramic, and induction.
Seasoning & Care
Like all carbon steel cookware, this wok needs a quick season before first use to start building its natural nonstick patina — the nitrided surface makes this easier than on untreated iron. Full step-by-step instructions are in the included English user guide and our carbon steel user guide.
About Tsubame-Sanjo
Tsubame-Sanjo in Niigata Prefecture has been a metalworking centre since the 17th century, and today supplies much of Japan's steel cookware and cutlery. Hammering by hand is one of the region's older techniques, used here to stiffen a thin pressed body rather than for decoration.
