Wok pans

If you are looking to buy a wok pan that best suits your needs, consider three essential factors: compatibility with your stove, the size of the pan, and maintenance based on the material of the pan.

BEKA WOK PANS: SUITABLE FOR VARIOUS COOKTOPS

When choosing the perfect wok pan, it is essential to consider the type of cooktop you will be using the pan on. No worries here, as BEKA understands the diversity of modern kitchens and offers pans compatible with different cooktops, including a non-toxic induction wok. Our woks feature a flat bottom, ensuring compatibility with modern cooktops, a distinctive advantage over traditional wok pans. Whether you are cooking on halogen, electric, ceramic or induction, BEKA has the best wok pan that seamlessly fits your cooking needs.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT SIZE OF WOK PAN

Selecting the right size wok pan is crucial for an optimal wok experience in your kitchen. The ideal size depends on the number of people you are cooking for and the type of dishes you are preparing. For households of two to four people, a wok pan ranging from 20 cm to 24 cm is generally sufficient, while a larger wok pan can be convenient for larger families or preparing larger quantities of meals. Measure the diameter of the pan at the top of the wok. Looking for an induction wok pan? Also consider the induction diameter at the bottom of the pan to ensure it matches the cooking zone you intend to use.

Now that you know our Beka wok pans are suitable for every cooktop and which size fits you, one question remains: what makes a good wok pan? The material influences not only durability, but also thermal conductivity and the weight of the pan.

Every Beka wok pan is PFAS-free, but comes in different materials:

• Cast iron wok: cast iron wok pans have a robust construction that retains heat well, making them suitable for slow cooking and roasting. The Nori collection is known for its cast iron wok, with excellent heat retention and even heat distribution. Thanks to the thicker cast iron and the enamelled interior, no seasoning is needed. A cast iron pan can also be non-stick: the Mandala combines the thermal properties of cast iron with a PFAS-free non-stick coating.
• Carbon steel wok: carbon steel wok pans, such as those from the Nomad and Maestro collections, are characterised by their lightness and quick heating, making them ideal for dynamic and intense cooking sessions. In the Nomad collection the pans heat up quickly and are ideal for healthy stir-frying thanks to the natural patina. The carbon steel wok from the Maestro collection is already naturally seasoned during production, so it is ready for use straight away. Carbon steel wok pans do require specific maintenance: read up on the seasoning process before you choose one.
