Overview
Kitchens with an induction, gas or electric range can all run the Hestan ProBond wok, a tri-ply stainless pan built around a pure aluminum core. A tall domed lid turns it into a braiser or steamer, and the whole pan can move from burner to oven.
Buy it for even heating from the aluminum core and the freedom to finish dishes under the broiler. The heft and bare stainless surface ask for technique with oil and preheating, and the base shape is never described.
Who it's for
Cooks with induction or glass cooktops who stir-fry, steam and braise in one pan get a lidded clad wok that also goes into the oven. Those wanting a nonstick surface or a featherweight pan should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Aluminum core spreads heat evenly
- Works on induction cooktops
- Domed lid for steaming and braising
- Goes from stove to oven
- Heft makes one-handed tossing harder
- No nonstick coating listed
- Base shape not listed
- Capacity figure in listing is unclear
Performance notes
Heat spreads through the aluminum core sandwiched in stainless, which evens out hot spots over a burner or induction coil. Sticking is governed by preheating and oil, since no coating is listed. The high oven rating lets the pan finish dishes under a broiler, and the domed lid traps steam for braising.
