Description
This cast iron double fiber line stir-fry wok is proudly crafted in Japan recognized for its exceptional quality and ease of maintenance. The unique fiber-like concave-convex surface on both the inside and outside sets this wok apart from other products. It is manufactured in Tsubamesanjo Niigata Prefecture an area renowned for its advanced metal processing technology.
The wok features a wide surface area that enhances heat distribution due to its unevenness and double fiber line design allowing it to heat food evenly and retain umami flavors. The double fiber technology applied to the surface ensures efficient cooking and compatibility with various heat sources including IH gas and induction cooktops.

Differences between double fiber and nitriding processing woks include their construction and functionality. Both types are lightweight cast iron woks. The double fiber technology enhances heat retention and umami trapping while nitriding involves a hardening process that introduces atomic nitrogen into the surface increasing durability and rust resistance. Nitriding woks are pre-seasoned and offer an upgraded version of the double fiber line wok ideal for achieving the desired flavors in Asian cuisine.
