Wok Edo from 'Alessi'

A wok is ideal for those who love light and healthy cooking. It allows you to cook with little fat and retain all the active ingredients of the food.

Most woks, however, are heavy beasts that you rarely drag out of the depths of the kitchen cupboard. Not so this lightweight stainless steel model I spotted at 'Alessi'.

The design by Patricia Urquiola is characterized by its lightness and curves. And the wok is even so beautiful that it can also be used for serving at the table.
