Help finding information on Marble coated woks
I've been looking for a wok and was considering a carbon steel wok, but from my research, it seems that carbon steel woks, even if they have a flat bottom, may warp slightly from the heat and not remain flat.
Since I have a flat top cook surface, I'm not sure if one of these is right for me.
I have read about marble coated woks that are supposedly good for flat cook tops, but I can't find any detailed information on them.
Do they require any special care (e. g. seasoning) and are they good for stir frying at high temperatures?

Which wok material is the best?

Look for carbon steel woks that are at least 14-gauge\u2014about two millimeters thick\u2014which won't bend when you press on the sides. Avoid nonstick woks at all costs. Most nonstick coatings cannot handle the high heat necessary for a proper stir-fry.How do I choose a wok material?
Carbon Steel woks are by far the most popular option, and for good reason. Chinese restaurants prefer them, and we prefer using them at home as well. Whether it is a \u201cpow wok\u201d with a single handle or a large wok with two metal handles, carbon steel is our top choice.Low Pressure Ceramic Marble Wok
