If you ever cook fora crowd, this is your wok.All the great features, just sized up to handle volume when you need it.The construction and thoughtfulness in Staub woks is unquestioned. The wide sloping sides where you can posit some ingredients while you cook others is quintessential. The lid is a must have, it allows the few minutes of steaming that gets vegetables crisp tender, and the long minutes of simmering that gets meats braised through. The stainless steel draining rack makes blanching and deep frying so much easier. Finally, the two handles on either side, and the beautiful enamel finish, even this clean matte black, makes it convenient to bring right to the table for everyone to share. Well done!

Truly a Perfect Pan. From Stove to Table.This is my go to wedding gift. In this Dark Blue color too. It is a stunning deep blue. But better than the color is the usefulness of the pan itself. It's so easy to make stews, curries and pasta sauce in this wok shaped pan. Combine ingredients and simmer until you bring it to the table for the family to enjoy together. The heavy duty cast iron keeps food warm while you enjoy.
I also use mine for deep frying. Tempura. Fish fry. French fries. It comes with the draining rack. So easy to work with, and easy to clean afterwards.

This pan lives on top of my stove, has its own burner, that is how much I love and use this versatile pan. You can use it like a wok, a deep fryer, a saute pan, a risotto pan, its uses are only limited by one's imagination. I like the warming/draining rack that comes with it and also use it for melting cheese on hamburgers that I have made in the pan. Once the burgers are done, you can place your cheese on them and move them to the rack, put the lid on and the residual heat will get the job done! I am always using this pan, it is the "perfect pan."

Not just a wokIt is the perfect wok because cast iron can get smoking hot, essential when making a stir fry. The sides are curved and tall so it's simple to push food away from the center during the cooking process. The enameled interior browns perfectly but also releases very similar to non stick. Unlike untreated cast iron, it does not have to be seasoned.
It is also awesome for frying, whether its shrimp, small pieces of chicken or doughnuts. The handle grill on top gives you the perfect spot to place freshly cooked items while you finish cooking everything.

Not-so-perfectFirst off, I waited weeks for this item to ship without any notice and by the time I received the shipping notice, the price dropped on the same exact item. I sent an email for a price adjustment and called their 1-800 number and the customer service seems non existent here.
When I received the item, I was surprised how the box had no shipping materials to protect the product. Luckily, I didn’t notice any damage.
The product looks nice, but this pan is not really versatile as advertised. I have used many types of pans including this, and every time I try to pan fry/stir fry anything it would end up stick to the pan. I’ve never had the same issues even with all clad d5 so this is a total letdown despite the name. I have not tried using this in the oven.
If you are in the market for a deep frying pan, perhaps this is for you otherwise I would not recommend it considering the price even with visual imperfection.

Will the lid from this wok fit either the 13" or 15" double handled paella pans? If not, do you have a lid that will fit either of those pans?
Asked by: AtoZ
This lid is the largest we make for our Staub cookware at 12".

Can I use a stainless steel wok spatula on this? Will it scratch the wok?
Asked by: Jubilee
You can use metal utensils, but we recommend wooden and silicone cooking tools to prolong the lifespan of your cookware.

I like the wire rack of this pan very much, can it be purchased separately? Will the rack work with the 4qt universal pan?
Asked by: kkkkkkaren
This rack cannot be purchased separately, and it would be too large for the 4-qt Universal Pan.
