Gift Ideas: Wok it Out

A wok is an essential tool in any healthy kitchen. It is quick, easy, and virtually fool proof. The two main types of woks are flat bottomed and round bottomed. The round bottomed woks are a bit more versatile but you will need to get a wok ring to ensure stability. If you are just trying it out, I suggest a flat bottomed wok.

Created in the Chinese kitchen 2000 years ago, and recently made popular by the Beastie Boys, wok's can be found virtually everywhere. Here are a few links to get you started:

Oh, and a wok is a perfect place to boil water for your brand new Bamboo Steamer!
