Yes, it still activates the induction without being in contact, as it is close enough to be magnetic. Induction ranges can produce extreme heat very quickly, which has the potential to warp carbon steel. To avoid warping, this wok floats above the range. This ensures an even heat on the base, and many years of cooking with your hand hammered wok.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow is induction wok cooking different than gas wok cooking?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGas stove the flames lick up the sides of the wok, so heat is on sides and base of bowl.

But because induction can go so hot, you really can sear the food beautifully and then move it over to the cooler sides of the wok as needed.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNewquist Forge specializes in high grade hand forged carbon steel woks, pans, garden tools and utensils.
