Netherton Foundry Spun Iron Wok 28cm with Ebonised Black Oak Handle
Serious cooks and professional chefs love the way black iron pans heat evenly and give great cooking performance. The more you use your pan the better it gets as the seasoned patina develops.
The Netherton cold pressed Flax Oil is perfect to have on hand for re-seasoning duties.

A couple of handy tips:
- If you are cooking meat or fish, oil the food, not the pan
- Be patient and allow the food to cook before trying to turn it over
- Don’t fry food straight from the fridge, allow it to come up to room temperature
The pan bodies are spun by hand, so each one is slightly different. The base will not be as flat as a billiard table.
If you do want to keep it as flat as you can, follow these simple guidelines:
- Every time you use the pan, heat it slowly to frying temperature.
This is especially important if you are using powerful cooking hobs such as induction.
- Use a hob the same size as the pan base, small rings will warp big pans.
- Never drop a hot pan into cold water. This will buckle it.
If your pan has oak handles, the grain on every piece is unique and each one is branded by hand. They are like fingerprints: no two are identical.
Love your pan and follow our instructions for re-seasoning. Oven seasoning is kinder to the pan than hob top seasoning and it also give a nicer looking finish. Note: the wood part of the handle will need to be unscrewed first.
We suggest that you only use hob top seasoning if your oven is too small for your pan or you are re-seasoning your wok.
Your pan will develop with use and, if cared for, will age beautifully and be a friend for life.
