Chinese cooking methods include stir-frying, steaming, pan frying, deep frying, and poaching, boiling, braising, searing, stewing, creating soup, smoking, and roasting nuts. A wok is used in all of these methods. Cooks who use woks frequently use ladles or spatulas with long handles called cans to shield their hands from the intense heat. The shape of the wok is what makes it unique. Woks from the past feature rounder bottoms. Hand-hammered woks are occasionally turned inside out to give the edge a slight flare after being fashioned that makes it simpler to push food up the sides. The flat bottom of some woks available in western nations make them more resemblant of deep-frying pans. The wok can be utilized because of its flat bottom on an electric stove, where rounded wok would not be able to fully contact heating element of the stove.It is challenging for the traditional round spatula or ladle to readily take up all the food in the bottom of the wok and throw it about with a flat bottom.
