Overview
The Yosukata 13.5 inch flat bottom wok is a carbon steel pan built for stir frying, searing and deep frying over high heat, made for home cooks who want a traditional wok shape that still sits flat on modern stovetops. It arrives pre-seasoned at high heat, so a first light oiling is enough to start cooking rather than a full burn-in.
Carbon steel woks reward a bit of upkeep: seasoning builds over repeat use, and thin gauge steel heats and cools fast, which is why cooks like them for stir fry over high heat. The flat bottom on this one trades a little of the classic round-bottom heat pattern for compatibility with electric, induction and glass cooktops, plus grills and camp stoves. The wooden handle keeps the grip cool but means the pan is not oven safe or dishwasher safe the way a clad stainless pan is.
- 13.5 inch flat bottom carbon steel wok
- Pre-seasoned at high heat before shipping
- Wooden handle
- Works on gas, electric, induction, glass and open fire
Who it's for
Suits a cook moving from nonstick to carbon steel who wants one pan for stir fry, searing and deep frying, and who is willing to hand wash and re-oil it after use. Less suited to someone who wants a dishwasher safe pan or a round-bottom wok for a gas wok burner.
Pros and cons
- Flat bottom works on induction, electric and gas alike
- Pre-seasoned so it does not need an initial burn-in
- Wooden handle stays cool during high heat cooking
- Sized for full meals at 13.5 inches across
- Needs hand washing and periodic re-oiling
- No lid included
- Bare carbon steel can rust if left wet
Performance notes
Carbon steel heats up quickly and unevenly compared to thick clad cookware, which is exactly what stir frying wants: a hot center for searing and cooler edges to hold cooked food. The pre-seasoning gives some release out of the box, but like any carbon steel pan it needs a light oil wipe after washing to keep building a natural nonstick layer over time.

Is this wok pan already seasoned when it arrives?
It is pre-seasoned at high heat before shipping, though carbon steel still benefits from ongoing oiling as it is used.
