Please review the profile before considering this item. This is a direct-heat resistant pot from Tokoname ware. The far-infrared effect allows ingredients to be cooked plumply and mellowly. It is made of a material that will not crack even when placed directly on a flame (dry heating is not recommended). It uses fine-grained petalate clay, allowing for various cooking methods. It was fired at 1200 degrees Celsius with a reddish-brown glaze. 《Uses》 ● Direct-heat cooking ● Stove cooking 《Cooking Examples》 ● Baked sweet potatoes ● Stew ● Curry ● Oden 《Handling Precautions》 ● Be careful of burns as it becomes very hot. ● As it is made of ceramic, it may break if dropped or struck. ● It is absorbent, so food odors may transfer. ● Do not use chlorine bleach as odors may remain. 《Points to Note》 * Due to the hand-applied glaze, there may be slight variations in color intensity. * The box may have faded due to being in stock. The product itself is not affected. * Due to the hand-applied glaze, there are some areas where the glaze may be rubbed off. Please refer to the photos.
