Stir-frying is perhaps the most recognized cooking style associated with the wok. This technique involves cooking food rapidly over high heat, which locks in flavors and nutrients. The small wok is particularly advantageous for this method, as its size allows for a quick, controlled cooking process, ensuring that vegetables remain crisp and meats stay tender. Just a small amount of oil can create a sizzling stir-fry, making it a healthier cooking option compared to deep frying.

One of the unique advantages of cast iron cookware is its ability to improve with age, particularly when properly seasoned. Seasoning your small cast iron skillet creates a natural non-stick surface that is perfect for cooking eggs. To season your skillet, begin by cleaning it with hot water and mild soap, then dry it thoroughly. Apply a thin layer of vegetable oil or a specialized cast iron seasoning oil and bake it upside down in the oven at a high temperature for about an hour. This process builds up a protective layer that enhances both the cooking performance and flavor of your eggs.
