Discover the perfect combination of traditional Chinese cookware design and modern surface treatment technology with the CONCORD KURO Series Black Nitrided Carbon Steel Wok.
Designed for home cooks who appreciate authentic Asian cuisine, this 15.5-inch wok delivers the fast heating and responsive temperature control that make carbon steel a favorite for stir-frying.
Its black nitrided surface treatment enhances durability and resistance to corrosion while preserving the natural cooking performance of carbon steel. Unlike cookware that relies on conventional nonstick coatings, the KURO wok can develop a naturally seasoned cooking surface through proper use and maintenance.
The traditional round-bottom design helps concentrate heat toward the center of the wok, making it ideal for high-heat stir-frying, searing meats, tossing vegetables, and preparing flavorful fried rice and noodles.
Equipped with two convenient side handles and a spacious cooking surface, this wok is designed for everyday meals, family gatherings, and authentic Chinese-style cooking.
From sizzling stir-fried vegetables to flavorful homemade fried rice, experience the versatility and tradition of cooking with a real carbon steel wok.
Before First Use & Seasoning Instructions
Step 1 – Wash Thoroughly
The wok may arrive with a protective oil applied during manufacturing and storage. Before first use, wash thoroughly with warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft sponge to remove any protective residue.
Step 2 – Dry Completely
Immediately dry the wok with a clean towel. Gently heat over low heat to evaporate any remaining moisture.
Step 3 – Apply a Thin Layer of Oil
Add a small amount of high-smoke-point cooking oil. Use a paper towel to spread it evenly across the cooking surface, wiping away excess oil.
Step 4 – Heat and Season
Gradually heat the wok according to the manufacturer's seasoning instructions. Allow the oil to form a thin, protective layer, then turn off the heat and let the wok cool naturally.
Step 5 – Maintain the Surface
Repeat light oiling and seasoning as needed. With regular cooking and proper care, the wok can gradually develop a smoother, naturally seasoned cooking surface.
Cleaning & Maintenance
- Hand wash after each use with warm water and a soft sponge.
- Avoid prolonged soaking or leaving water inside the wok.
- Dry immediately after washing to help prevent rust.
- Apply a very thin layer of cooking oil after drying when needed.
- Avoid prolonged empty heating or overheating.
- Hand washing is recommended; do not place in the dishwasher.
- Acidic foods may affect the natural seasoning layer. Clean and maintain the wok promptly after cooking.
Important Note: Carbon steel cookware is not inherently nonstick. Food release performance improves with proper seasoning, temperature control, and cooking technique. Natural changes in surface color and patina may occur with regular use.
