Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of 14" Wok Chuan (Spatula)Customer Review: LODGE DUTCH OVEN DOES IT BEST Summary: 5 Stars
I've had my Lodge Dutch Oven for roughly two months now. There is nothing I can't do in it. From stewing meats/veggies on a slow burn for 5 or 6 hours to sauteing meats/veggies with meat/chicken stock on high to get done in 3 or 4 or 5 minutes.
True Test of this Dutch Oven: Set the heat to low. Add a touch of olive oil. Dump in two finely chopped garlic cloves. Stir...don't let burn---they will NOT burn....
Set the oven to high, with meats and veggies and such already in....now add your chopped garlic to be "cooked" for only a few seconds: STIR, QUICKLY.... for maybe 20 seconds. Pull pot off stove....keep stirring because pot is still blazing hot....keep stirring for another 40 or 50 seconds or so until pot loses a good deal of heat....
Garlic has still not burned.
So: You can do garlic on a very high heat; you can do garlic at a very low heat. As far as I'm concerned, there's not much more you need to know to know this Dutch Oven will do anything you want it to.
I give it 100 percent.
Customer Review: Works great--POUND that wood!! Summary: 5 Stars
I love these wok spatulas--they feel like a long powerful extension of your hand, and the shape is perfect for the sides of woks, particularly the round bottomed woks.
BUT,yes, the wood will just pop out. DO THIS: either hammer the wood back in, further than the lathing allows, or turn it over and pound the wood into the metal on the ground. Either way the wood will grind in further than it is suppose to (the lathing) and never come back out. You might have a few wood splinters appear near the metal, but remove them and then mineral oil the wood and you are good to go...!
Customer Review: Sturdy Summary: 5 Stars
This is a nice addition to the wok set I bought as a Christmas present for my nephew. It was purchased to go with the 16 inch hand hammered carbon Pow Wok I puchased from The Wok Shop at the same time. It is pretty large and very sturdy. The wok is huge and my nephew is a big guy so it should work out well!
Customer Review: Sturdy, well made tool Summary: 5 Stars
I wasn't sure what to expect after I read the reviews, but what I got was a good, solid tool. It's thick, looks like it's made from one piece of metal, and the wood handle was attached very tightly. This is one of my new favorite kitchen tools. It works perfectly with the 14" wok I got.
Customer Review: Awesome Summary: 5 Stars
This is a hand made item, with decent quality. Where can you get cheap handmade cooking tools!! Pound the handle in well with a hammer and seal the wood, ready to go.
