Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. A Wok is a cooking vessel with a unique feature. Although it may come in different sizes, it traditionally has what shape?

Answer: Round Bottom

Although there are flat bottom woks, the round bottom is the traditional shape. It allows for the center of the wok to have a "hot spot" for quick cooking and stir frying.
2. The wok is very versatile and may be used in which of the following cooking methods?

Answer: All of these

It may also be used for deep frying, stewing, smoking, and even making soup!
3. Round bottom woks work best over which heat source?

Answer: Gas burner with wok ring

Although the wok could work over an electric burner with wok ring, the center will not get hot enough for a good stir fry.
4. The best way to season a wok is as follows.

Answer: Brush the inside surface with cooking oil and bake in a moderate oven for an hour

Woks should be treated just like cast iron pans. This will ensure years of rust free, non-stick cooking.
5. Which of these is the best method to clean a wok?

Answer: Plain water and a soft sponge

Similar to a cast iron pan, simply rinsing the wok with plain water and gently brushing away any food particles with a soft sponge will help maintain the seasoning and patina of the wok. If the wok is too greasy, you may also use a bit of dry table salt and a paper towel to clean.
6. The wok originated in which country?

Answer: China

Although woks are used widely in East and Southeast Asia, it originated in China.
7. If you were served the following dish, you might suspect it was cooked in a wok.

Answer: Stir-fried beef and broccoli

Woks are especially useful in stir frying.
8. Which of these are the best utensils for use in wok cooking?

Answer: A long handled spatula and ladle

The long handles will allow you to quickly cook and move food around the wok without burning your hands.
9. To steam foods using a wok, you would traditionally use the following accessory for best results.

Answer: Bamboo steamer

Bamboo steamers allow steam from boilng water in the wok to cook the food and allowing water condensation to drip back into the wok and not onto the food itself.
10. Which noted television chef would you expect to use a wok the most?

Answer: Martin Yan

While all these chefs are probably capable of using a wok, Martin Yan is known worldwide for his Chinese cooking program, "Yan Can Cook".
