Arnold's Gourmet Kitchen - Great Wok of China Infomercial (1990)

[@apachette07]

I've officially hit rock bottom. 34 years old, and my secret guilty pleasure is watching 80s infomercials at 2am...

[@D2Kprime]

I'm 42 and I love watching them around 4-5am just like when I saw them as a kid.

@Tony Notaro -That's right Chef Tony! I love your infomercials as well!

[@perlman7376]

I bought this wok based on this infomercial and still have it to this day. My favorite "Great Wok of China" dish is the beef with broccoli. Comes out perfect every time. Wally is a great salesman and the product totally lives up to his claims. This is a wonderful piece of TV history. One of, if not the best, infomercials ever made. Thanks for posting.

[@repairmanjackX]

Same here. Just used it yesterday to make a pepper beed yakisoba. My wok may very well be the oldest piece of cookware that I own - discounting things that I inherited from deceased family...

[@twallerstedt]

Me too. I have had this and used it for going on 30 years.

[@alanmorris7669]

I kept telling myself that I'd buy one, but I never did and I'll always regret it. I've been using an electric wok and a cheap wok from Walmart for years, but I still wish I had ordered this hand-hammered wok from Arnold's Gourmet Kitchen - Great Wok of China.

[@mje615]

I bought one of these in 1990 and used it tonight for dinner. For whatever reason, I looked up the infomercial and here it is. Remember it more than I thought I would have. I've taken this wok on adventures all over North America. Cooked at concerts, tailgating, on vacations and camping! Everyone time someone asked about it, I couldn't wait to tell them it's an "authentic hand-hammered wok from the People's Republic of China." - one of my favorite lines. And the food still sticks on the sides!!!!! Still have the chan and the lid. Wish I had the fire ring. I'm guessing i paid $39.99 + s/h, but if I had to value for insurance purposes, I say it's priceless!

[@LPD15ponce]

I remember this from 1990. Now as then, I find it has a very relaxing ASMR quality to it. Glad I found it. Thanks for posting.

[@D2Kprime]

I also remember it that way. There was a block of infomercials that ran from about 4:00-6:00AM every day where they would run this show. I remember this, the KitchenMate, TripleEdge windshield wipers, Kevin Trudeau's Mega Memory, Wolfman Jack's all-time favorite rock-'n'-roll hits, and the Rap' Tou hand crank food processor.

[@Samsy25]

My all time favorite infomercial. I remember visiting Baltimore in 1990 and watching this in our hotel room.

[@radiobrewster]

Interesting. I lived in Baltimore from 1982-86, but this was recorded in Indianapolis.

You found it - I’ve been looking for this for almost 15 years. Seriously thanks for taking me down memory lane!

I wish I would have purchased one of these gems for no other reason than the salesman/cook doing a terrific job. Man, could he talk. Thank you for posting.

"...Allowing the liquids to drain and collect in the middle" ....a classic infomercial quote!

[@CaptainPupu]

Also love how he spoke for near 20 minutes about traditional Chinese cooking yet he did nothing with the meal. No seasonings, no soy sauce, no Xiaoping wine, nothing Chinese ppl would add lol

[@expressyosef]

I can’t believe this infomercial is on the Tube. I remember watching this back in the day. Watching the guy hammering the wok at 21:00 is still classic. It’ll be a meme in no time!

[@GrindyStone]

This might be the best infomercial of all time. Informative and entertaining.

[@derco2000]

I remember watching this a dozen times in the summer of ‘90. Staying up late at night as a kid watching informertials sounds so weird now, but it really was hilarously and ironically fascinating even back then. This one drove me crazy because he had that piece of onion stuck to the back of the chan for sooo long!

I watched this commercial over and over again late Saturdays as a student waiting for Dr. Who on PBS. After many weeks my sales resistance broke down. My credit card was on my desk and I called. It was what they said it was, just seemed a lot smaller than I expected. I was living in a room without a kitchen, just a hot plate. I gave it away to a friend. LOL, I sort of regret that now with all the comments from people who have used it for decades.

[@styleomatic]

We have one, still use it. Love the ad. Thanks for posting.

I remember this infomercial from years ago. This was probably one of my early experiences of ASMR, although we knew nothing of it back then. Last night, I decided, "What the heck, why not search for "hand hammered wok" on YT, and lo and behold! This is my second time watching this video, and it's going to be a favorite!

What I like about this informercial is that the presenter is informative about how to stir-fry as well as trying to extol the virtues of woks. The tips about what you *don’t* do (don’t use olive oil, don’t use the ring on an electric stove, etc.)

[@JustinLodes]

Omg! Can't believe this is here on youtube! I used to watch this infomercial all the time when I was 13 and it made me love woks. Never used a good carbon steel wok but definitely getting one in the near future

This is great marketing. I watched this infomercial every time it came on in the 90's. The wok actually lived up to the commercial, and I would make that exact dish that Wally made, with rice.

Wow this takes me back. I seem to think that there's another version. I recall Wally doing a longer demo, commenting on the added handle on the wok (not seen in this video) and he domonstrated cooking using the ring on the inside to steam corn and some other items. Still.. cool to see this. It was like 26 years ago and this was the "thing" that got me into wok cooking. I still have this wok and just used it yesterday...

[@larrydickman4507]

I recall a later, second infomercial, with Wally Nash (but I don't recall if Arnold Morris was in it). The infomercial was pretty much the same except it was for a flat-bottomed wok. At the time, It made me chuckle because Wally used to emphasize the importance of the roundness. My guess is that the round ones didn't work well or weren't convenient to use on electric stoves, despite what he says. I do like this infomercial very much, Wally is so likeable, informative, and he has a sense of humor.

[@mrb19741]
