The American Metalcraft Wok is not actually used for cooking. This wok is a mini 4-3/8" diameter wok-style serving dish made from polished stainless steel. It would be great for individual portions of noodles or stir fry vegetables and your guests will get a kick out of your unique presentation. American Metalcraft's wok is another innovative take on table serving pieces - you can even use it for single salads or desserts!
