This is an incredibly cute, high-quality earthenware pot from Homeland. It cooks delicious, fluffy rice. I've only used it a few times, but I'm sadly selling it because I can no longer cook for myself. Packing it is a hassle, so I can't offer a discount. Sorry... Homeland / Shigaraki-yaki Rice Cooker Pot Homeland / Shigaraki-yaki Rice Cooker Pot Simple yet authentic Shigaraki-yaki earthenware pot for cooking rice This rice cooker pot is made using earthenware from Shigaraki, which contains a lot of compost, and is baked to create a gentle and warm appearance. The 1-2 go (rice cup) size is perfect for 1-2 person households, and the 3-4 go size is suitable for families. This rice cooker pot is said to have more than three times the far-infrared effect of a regular pot, and it heats the rice from the core, resulting in surprisingly fluffy rice. The handles, which can be cumbersome during storage, have been removed. The rim is large, so it can be used as a handle. The lid can be turned upside down and stacked for even more compact storage! The traditional scarlet color, or "hiiro," is a unique brownish color that was created in the old days by kneading the soil from the ancient Lake Biwa layer at the bottom of Lake Biwa, and then firing it by burning pine wood. Using modern glaze, skilled artisans skillfully reproduce this color, which is a bit unusual for earthenware pots, while also considering the movement of the fire in the kiln. The exquisite amber color, which is between deep black and brown, is a standard color in Shigaraki-yaki, baked using glossy and elegant glaze. Enjoy the change in texture as it dulls and shines with use. 3-4 go: Diameter approx. 18.5 x Height 23 (cm)
