Whiskey and woks. The connection between these two industries may seem elusive, but somewhere along the way, the Kentucky-based, bourbon-loving aficionados at Jim Beam took an unexpected turn and decided to expand their portfolio by making cast-iron Cantonese-style woks. And we’re here for it, especially considering that the model it released has garnered nearly 3,000 positive reviews from satisfied customers. This wok can truly do it all, and it’s also compatible with different types of stove tops and cooking surfaces.
Even though Cantonese-style woks have shorter handles, they still have their advantages. That’s because Cantonese-style woks tend to have a little more space inside the pan which makes it easier to cook larger batches of food (via Wok All). So if you’re looking for a little more room to cook bigger meals, a Cantonese-style wok may be a good fit for you. Just be aware that flipping your food with the mini-handles on a Cantonese-style wok is much more challenging that flipping food in a Northern-style wok. That said, a Cantonese-style wok makes a wonderful serving dish once the food is ready. Heavy-duty and well-designed, this wok is also safe for your grill, oven, or over an open flame.
