Read and translate into Vietnamese INTRODUCTION TO THE WOK The earliest woks not woks at all, but cast-iron pans with sloping sides great for tossing and stirring a lot of food easily. Developed as a result of the frugal use of fuel, historians also think that there's a connection between the helmuts and shields of the invading Mongols and woks. Whatever 'woks' best, right? Modern woks are very versatile. They can be used for almost any type of cooking: stir frying, deep flying, steaming, stewing, and even baking a cake. I've made hamburgers and pancakes in them, as well as soups and desserts. A wide variety of different materials, sizes and shapes are available nowadays. When selecting a wok, you must consider the type of stove you have. If you have a gas stove, you may use either a round-bottomed or flat- bottomed wok. If you have an electric range, the flat-bottomed style is the best choice, because it sits directly on the element. By selecting your wok appropriately, you will eliminate the need of a ring 55
  58. stand. Most Woks range in sizes from 10" to 16", the 14" is the most preferable size which is adequate for the preparation of most dishes in the cookbook. Although Woks are available in many different types of materials, the traditional wok made from uncoated carbon steel is the most popular one. This material conducts heat well and is the most economical to purchase. 8.3.4. Write a paragraph.
