Wolf Sealed Burner Rangetop with Wok Burner - Quick Start

[Music]Congratulations on your new Wolf sealed burner range-top with two or four burners and wok burner. This QuickStart was designed to offer you the tools and techniques you need to gain the most benefit from your new appliance. The wok burner when a wok is placed over the burner the flame tulips around the base of the pan creating the ideal temperature gradient for wok cooking. A searing hot base with graduated temperature zones along the sides. The targeted flame and hot base of the wok quickly evaporate excess moisture from foods producing a crisp texture and distinct wok-fried flavor. The sides of the wok offer a backboard for increased mobility of food around the pan as well as a resting area to hold and warm cooked foods while preparing others in the base. For ergonomic cooking the porcelain coated cast iron wok ring cradles and enables the user to tilt the wok offering extreme pan maneuverability for even the most active wok cooking. Selecting the wok-walks are available in various sizes with round or flat bottoms and are crafted of a variety of materials. When pairing a wok with the Wolf wok burner we recommend a traditional rounded bottom carbon steel wok measuring a minimum of 14 inches wide. This shape and size will rest most comfortably in the wok frame. We suggest to avoid walks with flat bottoms and nonstick coatings as they will not deliver optimal performance. Tools and accessories for wok cooking-In addition to selecting the right wok for your needs it will be helpful to have the proper tools on hand. We recommend exploring the following: a wok Tuan better known as a wok spatula or paddle is instrumental for moving and turning food within the wok. These tools are often crafted of stainless steel or bamboo. A spider strainer or skimmer is ideal for wok cooking that requires your food to be submersed in and removed from oil, water, or other liquids. Bamboo steamers and clay pots are two traditional tools that will expand your wok cooking repertoire. Steamers can be used to create a moist heat environment and allow cooks to prepare multiple dishes at the same time. Steam a variety of foods from fish ribs and baby bok choy to traditional dim sum selections such as dumplings and Bao. Clay pots are a traditional cooking tool used to slow cook and braised tender meats for longer periods of time, generally requiring less oil or liquid.
