TRANSCRIPT
Most people think nonstick cookware is a modern invention but the Chinese wok has been around for over two thousand years and it's the original nonstick pan. And I'm going to prove it to you by frying an egg with a half teaspoon of oil. Every time you're cooking with your wok, you're burning oil into the medals pores. Over time it creates a natural nonstick surface without any chemicals. Look how easily the egg slides and it doesn't stick to the pan at all.
