It holds 3.5 litres, weighs 1.65kg and runs on every heat source including induction. There are no coatings, no rivets, no nickel and no seasoning to maintain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Makes It a Wok and Not a Deep Frypan?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shape. High sides curve up from a flat base with no corner where the wall meets the floor of the pan, and that continuous curve is what wok cooking is built on. Food rides up the side and falls back into the heat as you toss it, and there is no right-angled seam for rice or sauce to catch in. A deep frypan has that corner, which is why food piles up in it instead of circulating. This one pairs the curve with a single long handle, so it can be worked one-handed the way a traditional wok is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho Is the 28cm Size For?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 28cm is the everyday size. There is room to stir-fry for one to three people without crowding the pan, and at 1.65kg it is light enough to lift, toss and store easily. A 35cm family wok needs two hands and a clear bench; this one lives on the cooktop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeeknight stir-fries for one to three\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFried rice, noodles and single-pan dinners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSearing and finishing individual portions of meat or fish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCurries, sauces and shallow-frying\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteaming, poaching and small-batch braising\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDoes It Work on Induction?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The base is flat with a 14cm stove contact zone, so it sits flush on an induction hob and heats across the whole base. Non-nickel stainless steel is magnetic, so no adaptor plate or wok ring is needed. A traditional round-bottom carbon steel wok cannot do this, because the curved base never makes proper contact with a flat induction surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible heat sources:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInduction cooktops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGas burners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectric coil, radiant ceramic and halogen\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDomestic and commercial ovens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBBQs and grills\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePizza ovens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpen campfires and outdoor flames\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMaterial and Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wok is wrought from one 3mm-thick sheet of non-nickel stainless steel. The alloy contains no nickel, and the pan carries no synthetic coating of any kind: no PTFE, no PFOA, no PFAS, and no aluminium core. Because it is formed in a single piece, there are no rivets, screws or welds anywhere on the pan, including where the long handle meets the bowl. Nothing can loosen, and there is no crevice for food to sit in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach pan is stamped with the month and year it was made.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDimensions and Capacity\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCooking diameter: 28cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStove contact surface: 14cm (flat base)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBowl height: 7cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight at handle: 14cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal length including handle: 61cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 1.65kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacity: 3.5 litres\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial thickness: 3mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDoes It Need Seasoning?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Stainless steel needs no seasoning layer, will not rust if left wet, and cannot have its surface stripped by an acidic sauce. Wash it, dry it, put it away. It is dishwasher safe, and because there are no joins in the body there is nowhere for residue to hide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStainless Steel Wok vs Carbon Steel Wok\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarbon steel is the traditional wok material and it cooks well, but it has to be seasoned, kept dry, and re-seasoned when an acidic or liquid-heavy dish strips the layer back. It also rusts. Stainless steel removes all of that maintenance while staying fully compatible with tomato, wine, citrus, vinegar and long simmering. The trade is that stainless does not build a patina, so the surface stays the same from the first cook to the thousandth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Differentiates This Wok\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost stainless woks sold in Australia are imported, riveted, thin-gauge and nickel-bearing. The 28cm nöni™ Stainless Steel Wok is a single sheet of 3mm wrought non-nickel stainless steel, manufactured in Sydney, with a flat induction-compatible base, a seamless long handle, a date stamp from the month it was made, and a multi-century warranty. It is one of very few seamless, non-nickel, coating-free, induction-compatible long-handled stainless woks made in Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"nöni™","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46083201433644,"sku":"ns128wb","price":303.96,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/1502\/8012\/files\/woknoni_2704e4f5-1cdc-46ed-aef8-555c68527b9c.png?v=1788499395","url":"https:\/\/solidteknics.com\/en-nz\/products\/28cm-stainless-steel-wok","provider":"Solidteknics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
