I had been searching around on the internet to see if I could find a wok burner with a little more “umpfh” than our Viking stove could put out. I found a few interesting webpages online especially IndiaJoze. I remembered that I had seen something very similar at an Asian grocery story locally. I went there this morning and they still had some for $68+tax.
I bought one of course and assembled it this afternoon. I can’t wait to try it out and see if this will help boost my stir-fries flavor and Wok Hei. I also stumbled over a few eGullet threads here and here. On a few occasions the book “Breath of a Wok” was discussed. I’ve had that one in my wishlist for quite a while on Amazon, so maybe it’s time to get it ordered.
Update: I took a video of the flame the burner can produce. I can’t wait to try it:
