The contrast between the indigo lid, which resembles a chrysanthemum flower, and the black body gives a modern impression. Convenient clay pot for both induction cooktop and open flame. Also available with electric stove tops and ovens.
The ceramic coating on the inside of the earthenware pot makes it non-stick and easy to clean. Its high hardness also makes it scratch-resistant and durable.

For other dishes such as soup, stew, curry, cheese fondue, it can cook up to 4 to 5 people.
It can be used immediately after purchase because it does not need to be seasoned before use.
It is 15% lighter than conventional products while retaining the heat retaining properties of clay pots.
The black body part uses an in-house developed glaze that prevents odor and stain problems.
Banko Ware has excellent heat resistance, durability, and heat retention properties. It is also resistant to heat, making it difficult for food to cool down. The far-infrared ray effect locks in the umami of the food.

Today, Kyusu teapots and earthenware pots are representative products of Banko ware, and earthenware pots in particular account for 80% to 90% of all earthenware pots produced in Japan.
Yokkaichi Banko ware is characterized by the excellent heat resistance due to the ceramic clay used.

CanadaVery well made!
I cooked my first dinner tonight using my new donabe. It is extremely well made. I was worried the induction compatibility would be weak but it heated up like a charm and maintained temperature throughout the whole cooking process. It is very beautiful as well so it goes from stove to table very nicely for family style service. At the end of the meal, the enamel coating makes cleaning very easy as nothing sticks. I recommend it wholeheartedly! I wish they would make an induction compatible version of their double lid rice cooker donabe.
United StatesThis is a gorgeous piece that works well on both a gas and an induction stove. Very happy with this purchase overall.
