A iced ceramic rice cooker, made with iGA clay extracted from 4 million years old soil. It takes two weeks to make a single donabe. Each donabe is shaped by hand by craftsmen who give it its robust and thick shape, unchanged for centuries. Donabe are cooked in very high temperature ovens for several days. Tradition has it that the whole village relay day and night to supply the ovens and thus maintain the fire on. These artisanal manufacturing techniques give this donabe unique cooking performance, impossible to reproduce in the factory. Its shape is optimized to store and slowly diffuse heat, while its thick walls and double cover allow high pressure cooking, preventing overflows. Its porous surface allows the Donabe to "breathe" as a wooden container, thus avoiding the rice becomes sticky. The thickness of the clay (once and a half that of the conventional cuisers) and the air pockets ensure an exceptional heat retention, allowing the rice to cook in a gentle and homogeneous manner to the center of the grain, even after extinction fire. It is ideal for preparing white rice, full rice, as well as simmered dishes. Once cheeky, this Donabe rice cooker will last your whole life. Japanese families use the same Donabe, transmitted from generation to generation. To be used on medium heat gas. Does not go in the dishwasher.

Our tips

Once well cheeky, this donabe can also act as a versatile pan!

Before any use, imperatively respect the cheese procedure.

Due to the characteristic porosity of the IGA clay, it is essential to "cheer" your donabe before the first use. This procedure, to be carried out only once, avoids the risk of cracks and guarantees the sustainability of your cooker.

Culottage procedure:

1. Make sure the bottom of your cooker is perfectly dry.
2. Pour water into the donabe up to around 70 % of its capacity, then add cooked rice (about 20 % of the volume of water). Mix well.
3. Place the two covers, taking care to align their ventilation holes perpendicularly.
4. Place the donabe on a low to medium gas fire.
5. As soon as the mixture begins to shudder (about 10 minutes), remove the lids and continue cooking over low heat, until a thick paste is obtained. Never let the rice boil, and mix regularly to prevent the rice from getting attached.
6. Turn off the heat and let the mixture cool in the donabe for about an hour.
7. Empty the content (not edible), rinse and dry the Donabe.

Maintenance precautions:

1. Clean the donabe with a soft sponge, dishwashing liquid and lukewarm water (avoid any abrasive sponge).
2. Once washed, wipe it carefully and let it dry upside down.
3. Before any use, check that the bottom of the donabe is dry, because a wet bottom could cause cracks during cooking.
4. Use weak to medium lights and avoid heating suddenly. Never expose the donabe to thermal shocks (eg immersion in cold water).
5. Never place the empty donabe on the fire.
6. Avoid fries.
7. Do not leave the donabe immersed in the water for more than 30 minutes.
8. Before putting it away, make sure it is dry.
9. Be careful, the donabe can become hot during cooking. Always handle it with gloves or a cloth.

Recipe for cooking a rice in the donabe

1. Before cooking the rice, rinse 2 to 3 times in cold water until you get clear water.
2. Make the rice rest in a volume and a half of cold water during the time indicated, out of the donabe.
3. Bring the water to a boil then cook over low heat the time indicated by placing the hole on the upper cover perpendicular to the holes of the lid the interior.
4. Cut the heat and let the rice stand for 15 minutes, taking care to leave the lid.
