- Purpose and key benefits - Provides a stable support for round-bottom woks, preventing wobble and improving safety during cooking. - Non-sharp ends reduce the risk of scratches and accidental cuts when handling the ring and placing or removing the wok. - Robust construction with a flat, stable base and perforated sides ensures strength and airflow while keeping the wok seated securely. - Compatibility and function - Designed for woks with round bottoms; for best fit the wok ring should be smaller than the wok diameter. - Universal size suitable for most stovetop frying pans and conventional burners. - Can be positioned narrow-side down to stabilize a wok on small electric coil burners; the design helps cover the coil area so heat from the burner is used efficiently. - Dimensions - Height: 1.5" - Bottom diameter: 11.8" - Top diameter: 10.5" - Performance and practical advantages - Stable flat base prevents tipping and keeps the wok centered over the heat source. - Perforated sides reduce weight while maintaining strength and permitting ventilation around the wok. - Simple, durable design that is easy to use and store. - Typical use scenarios 1. High-heat stir-frying on a gas range: place the ring on the burner to support a round-bottom wok and maintain a centered, stable cooking position. 2. Cooking on small electric coil burners: set the ring narrow-side down to stabilize the wok and ensure the coil is adequately covered for efficient heating. 3. Using a round wok on a flat stovetop or when converting between different burners: the ring provides a consistent seating surface for even, safe cooking. - Notes and care - Verify that the ring is smaller than your wok’s diameter for correct fit and stability. - Clean and dry after use to maintain condition.
