Yoshikawa Cook-Pal Ren Nitrided Carbon Steel Induction Wok - 24cm

Buy a Cook-Pal Ren and you are buying into a system. Yoshikawa makes the Ren in six wok sizes and three frypans, with stainless steel lids from 28cm to 36cm, steamer inserts from 30cm to 36cm, and spare wooden handles — all cut to the same diameters, so a lid bought years after the pan still fits. You add to it over time rather than buying a set upfront.

This 24cm wok is the smallest in the system: its 14cm base concentrates the burner's heat for fast, high-heat cooking, and at 865g it is the lightest, sized for one to two serves at a time. The pan is 1.6mm nitrided carbon steel made in the company's own Tsubame-Sanjo facilities — the high-temperature nitriding hardens the surface, resists rust, and gives seasoning an easy grip from the first use.

What's Included

• 1 x Yoshikawa Cook-Pal Ren Wok - 24cm

Steam with it: a Pearl Life Bamboo Steamer (21cm) sits level over this wok with the 24cm Adapter Ring.

Key Features

• Premium Nitrided Carbon Steel: The steel undergoes a special nitriding heat treatment, creating a hardened, corrosion-resistant, and durable surface.
• Excellent Heat Performance: The 1.6mm carbon steel is highly responsive, heating quickly and evenly for precise temperature control.
• Dual Pouring Rims: Features convenient pouring spouts on both sides for easy, drip-free pouring.
• Detachable Wooden Handle: The handle can be removed for compact, easy storage.
• Induction Compatible: The flat bottom ensures stability and makes this wok compatible with all cooktops, including 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 our carbon steel user guide.

About Yoshikawa

Yoshikawa manufactures in Tsubame-Sanjo and builds its cookware as systems rather than single items. The Cook-Pal Ren line runs from 24cm to 36cm, with lids, steamer inserts and spare handles engineered to the same diameters — a lid bought years after the pan still fits. Production is entirely in the company's own Japanese facilities.
