wok
This term refers specifically to the deep, sloping-sided pan designed for high-heat cooking. It carries a strong cultural association with East Asian culinary traditions, particularly the technique of stir-frying where ingredients are kept in constant motion to prevent burning.
While often used interchangeably with pan in casual conversation, the wok is distinguished by its unique geometry which allows heat to concentrate at the bottom while remaining cooler at the sides. This makes it a specialized tool rather than a general-purpose vessel.
