FAQ
No, the YUKIHIRA saucepans are made of stainless steel and are completely free of artificial coatings of any kind.
No, because the heat-insulating wooden handle of the Yukihira would swell in the dishwasher, the wood would leach out and eventually crack.
No. The wooden handle means it cannot be used in the oven. The wood would dry out in the oven and then crack.
Yes, absolutely. Yukihira saucepans from Yoshikawa are made of induction-suitable stainless steel and therefore work perfectly on induction hobs. However, please note that overheating can occur very quickly, especially on induction, if you are not careful. Never heat the Yukihira when empty. The power/booster level of the induction hob may only be used if there is plenty of water in the Yukihira, which can absorb and dissipate the heat from the base. Otherwise, in extreme cases, the base of the pot may become permanently warped.
The Yukihira casseroles from Yoshikawa are produced exclusively and entirely in Japan.
Yes, Yoshikawa offers practical and robust stainless steel lids for its Yukihira casseroles. The lids are designed so that they always cover two adjacent sizes. This means you need fewer lids and save space in the kitchen cupboard.
