Nihon Yoshokki is a Japanese kitchenware maker which has a flagship brand of culinary ironware called “Takumi Japan”. This is an omelette pan made of cast iron.
Magma Plate: a specialty iron with a concave-convex surface, resulting in more efficient oil distribution and less food sticking / burning even when used in high heat. Quick and even in heat conductivity, this pan can lock in the food’s umami when it is sufficiently cooked.
Furthermore, cooked foods absorb iron that is eluted from the heated pan. As a result, you can increase your iron intake through your diet.
The Takumi Japan pans are compatible with the IH heat sources of 200V.
Instructions
The pan. made of cast iron, requires a process called seasoning to avoid food sticking and rusting. It is said that proper and constant seasoning allows the pan to last for decades.
For first time use, rinse the pan well, then heat it in low or medium heat until it gets completely dry and generates smoke. Make sure to ventilate well.
After drying the pan, add oil to the entire pan including its back and handle, then dry-heat the pan again. When the pan generates smoke, stop heating and allow it to cool down naturally. Again, do not forget to ventilate while heating.
Repeat the steps of oil application and dry-heating for 2~ 3 times. If you wish to remove the smell of iron, you can stir-fry some vegetable waste items until these get slightly burned. When the pan gets cool, reapply oil to the whole pan. Wrap it with newspaper when storing.
When cooking, pre-heat the pan, add the oil, and it will be ready to use. For best shelf life, repeat the above seasoning process (wash, dry, pre-heat, cooldown, and apply oil) after use.
