When it comes to materials, a 28 cm wok is typically made from carbon steel, cast iron, or non-stick materials. Carbon steel woks are favored for their heat retention and even distribution, making them ideal for achieving that coveted “wok hei” or “breath of the wok” flavor that is desired in many Asian dishes. On the other hand, non-stick coatings are great for those who prefer low-fat cooking and easy cleanup. Regardless of the material, the key is to season the wok properly to enhance its non-stick properties and develop a rich flavor over time.

A meat press, often made of heavy cast iron or stainless steel, serves several purposes. First and foremost, it helps to achieve a consistent cooking surface. By applying even pressure across the steak, it ensures that the meat cooks uniformly, preventing uneven hot spots that can lead to an undercooked or charred exterior. Additionally, using a meat press can help to sear the steak more effectively, locking in those delightful juices and giving you that coveted crust that steak enthusiasts crave.

Whether you are making sandwiches, frying eggs, or cooking vegetables, you can achieve perfectly cooked results without the worrying hot and cold spots that some other cookware may present.

Moving into winter, the allure of comfort food takes center stage. One-pot meals become the go-to for gathering friends and family around the table. A classic chicken pot pie, for example, cooked entirely in a black iron skillet, becomes a hearty meal that warms both body and soul. The skillet’s superior heat retention helps create a golden, flaky crust, while the filling simmers to perfection. It’s the ideal vessel for hearty stews, hearty casseroles, or even sizzling frittatas, allowing home cooks to embrace the beauty of cold-weather cooking.

Another important aspect of good skillets is their size and shape. Skillets come in various diameters, from small ones ideal for cooking a single serving to large ones perfect for family meals. A larger skillet can be particularly advantageous for one-pan dishes, where multiple ingredients can be cooked together, absorbing each other's flavors and minimizing cleanup. The flared edges of a skillet also facilitate easy flipping and stirring, ensuring that every ingredient is cooked evenly.
