Does this wok work with a regular stove?

I've used it on an electric stove, but it takes a quite a bit longer to heat up compared to a gas stove, mainly because of the small surface area touching the electric element.

I have a Viking gas cooktop and it works fine. It does have a tendency to move a little.

I would expect not. It is very rounded and requires a ring to stabilize it. This wok shape is best used with gas burners. For your application I recommend a flat bottom wok and use a burner that matches the bottom diameter.

Yes, a wok works the best. Just enough for some steam to last while cooking.

Yes, we use it on our gas stove. Just use a ring underneath the wok to keep it balanced.

This is the correct way for the lid to fit.The steam flows back into the pan and does not run down the outside onto the stove/burner. The WOK is not designed to be filled with food so the lid fitting this way does not interfere with Cooking. The size of the WOK is designed so the food can be moved up and down the sides for increased and deceased heat. The lid as it is made will accommodate this method of cooking as well.

Yes it can. We have a flat top glass stove and it works just fine. The bottom is flat, not rounded as other woks are.

I don't kno2w for sure. I have traditional electric stove with coil burners.

Yes. I have been cooking with this kind of stove for years and it is so much better than anything else. All of my cookware works very well.

Absolutely. A wok is primarily designed for pan frying. It's shape allows food to be moved from the hotter bottom pan surface up the sides where it is less hot, or to slide the more finished pieces out of the wok into a bowl. You can pan-fry meat as well but my preferred instrument in that situation is a cast iron skillet.

this is not a professional burner but you can get the wok hei with it. The flame is powerful and delivers high heat instantaneously but won't reach the edge of the wok in a horizontal position. to get the flame in you need to tilt the wok while flipping the food inside

They claim it does- looking at the bottom I would say it should. I have a gas stove with regular burners so I haven't tried.

Sorry this is so late, I just got it. I would say no. I once bought a new ceramic stove it said not to use copper bottom and there was something aboutthe wok and wok ring that I thought I could not safely use it. I bought an electric wok and stopped using my Norpro. Now a decade plus later I am livingwhere I have a gas stove again and I bought the Norpro 10 piece wok set again this time from Amazon.

Yes, absolutely. There is a wok ring included, that sits on top of the burner (ring) and focuses the heat on the bottom of the wok.

No igniter and you would probably need to remove the sides to cook with a wok. Shouldn't be a problem, though.

Yes, in fact I suspect it was basically designed for woks. However, a small wok might sit too deeply in it and get too close to the burner jets. My 16" wok works great.

I'm sorry; but I don't feel that I can honest that question. I have only used this item with an older, traditional gas burner stove. On that stove, it worked beautifully!

No the stove only works on. The canisters it's recommend for! Unless there is a adapter that I don't know about but I don't think there is one!
