One of the primary advantages of a cast iron griddle is its exceptional heat retention and distribution properties. The griddle evenly absorbs heat, preventing hot spots that can result in uneven cooking. This feature is particularly useful for making dishes that require temperature precision, such as crepes or grilled sandwiches. Moreover, the durability of cast iron means that this griddle can be used on various heat sources, including stovetops, ovens, and even outdoor grills.

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.
