Cooking Stir-Fries and More with an Induction Wok

Fine-tune your cooking experience with an induction wok. These are ideal for serving up your favorite stir-fry recipes thanks to their sloped walls. This allows you to toss and stir meat, poultry and veggies easily. You can also employ other cooking methods in a wok such as braising or deep frying. However you intend to use your wok, it's sure to quickly become one of your cookware essentials

What is an Induction Wok?

An induction wok, like other induction cookware, relies on electrical currents to source enough heat to cook food. Induction cooktops are designed to heat up food much faster than gas stoves, and they give you the opportunity to have much more control over your cooking surface than traditional cookers. They are also much easier to clean.

Our induction woks feature a deep basin for cooksng. Several styles include long handles to ensure your hands stay safe and protected. Others offer two handles for easy lifting from both sides of the wok. Take a look at our woks that come with racks for draining things like dumplings and fried foods.

What Are the Different Types of Wok Available?

In addition to an induction wok, you'll find a variety of other woks at Williams Sonoma. Our nonstick open wok designs are made for heat efficiency and durability. They won't peel, crack or break down. The nonstick finish is PFOA-free and easy to clean up after cooking. Select designs feature a Stratanium-Plus nonstick surface that works well for searing and browning, while others are made with a DiamondSear surface which helps resist scratches and stains.

You'll also find a range of materials to choose from, such as our stainless steel woks, cast-iron woks and copper woks. Stainless steel is highly durable, and ours come with an elegant, polished finish. Cast iron is noted for its ability to retain heat. Our cast-iron wok comes preseasoned and holds up against rust. The best part? All of these options are safe for induction heating!

Topping Up Your Kitchen Essentials

After you've chosen an induction wok for your kitchen, think about what other items you might need. We have a wide selection of induction-friendly stock and soup pots for all of your soup, stock and stew needs. In addition to classic stock-pot designs with fitted lids, look for options that include a strainer lid or a handy multi-pot design that includes things like a pasta insert or a steamer insert.

Get ready to roast your favorite meats, poultry or vegetables with our roasting pans with racks. If you're getting ready for the holidays, look for a roasting pan that's equipped to hold a whole turkey. Roasting racks elevate food to encourage quick, even cooking. We've got outdoor roasters too, which are made for cooking directly on outdoor grills. A perforated base helps distribute heat and ensures that smoky flavor gets trapped in your burgers, veggie kabobs or roasts.

Wall-mounted pot racks keep your everyday pots and pans secure and accessible while you cook, fry, simmer and boil. Plus, having a rack mounted to the wall or the ceiling keeps cabinet space free and clear for other essentials. Our pot racks include pot hooks for added convenience. Happy shopping!
