In OIGEN Nanbu Iron Shinonome Kikko Made In Induction Direct Honjien [Made Japan] Kettle, Pattern, 1L, Japan, Compatible, Heat, /La/

This is a "Nambu Ironware" iron kettle from Iwate Prefecture in the Oshu region. Due to its uniform thickness, Nambu iron kettles have excellent thermal conductivity and heat retention. The iron dissolves into the water boiled in the kettle, giving it a mellow flavor. Its beautiful appearance makes it useful not only as a tool but also as an interior décor piece. OIGEN iron kettles are kiln-fired for traditional rust prevention. The unpainted, unglazed interior allows for more dense scale to form, allowing for the joy of developing your own unique iron kettle. We hope you will treasure it and use it for many years to come. This 1L iron kettle features a tortoiseshell design, a symbol of good fortune. The handle folds down for convenient storage. It's neither too big nor too small, making it easy for both men and women to pour from. The base is thicker than usual, making it compatible with powerful 200V IH cooktops. It can be used on both direct flames and induction cooktops, making it a great gift for new beginnings or housewarmings. ●Material: Cast iron (biscuit interior) ●Dimensions: Approx.

Rapid heating may also cause the base to become deformed, so please use a setting of "low" to "medium" when heating. *When using a radiant heater, unlike direct flame or IH, the heat is weaker, so it takes longer to boil water. Also, depending on the shape of the radiant heater or iron kettle, it may not be compatible. {Caution} Ironware can become very hot if overheated. It is also thick and heavy, so please handle it with care. Never scrub the inside or outside with a scrubbing brush or scouring powder. When using for the first time, boil the water, changing it two or three times, and discard the water before use. Never boil the pot empty, and do not fill it to the brim with water.
