The Tool Bar: Wok 'n Roll
Okay, so if you’ve stuck with us for any length of time, you already know we love to hear about the more unusual ways to use kitchen tools, or to employ non-kitchen implements into food preparation chores.
But here’s one that even I couldn’t have come up with.
Yes, there’s actually an intrepid group of folks who zoom down a bobsled run riding a wok.
As reported in the Wall Street Journal last week, there is actually a sizable contingent of people — some of them former bobsledders — who prefer to hurl themselves down a bobsled run at up to 75 miles an hour while sitting in a wok instead of a standard-issue sled.
In fact, they’re angling to make wok-racing an Olympic sport.
We’ll stay tuned, but in the meantime, have you ever involved a kitchen tool in any kind of sport? Leave a comment below, and please keep it out of the gutter.
