Crafted by a popular Japanese kitchenware maker which has a flagship brand of culinary ironware, this is a very high-quality omelette pan made of cast iron.
Magma Plate: a specialty iron with a rough 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.
These pans are compatible with the IH heat sources of 200V.
The pan is made of cast iron which requires a process called seasoning to avoid food sticking and rusting. It is said that proper and consistant seasoning allows the pan to last for decades.
For first time use, rinse the pan well, then heat it on 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, until a glassy non-stick coating appears. 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.

I love this pan, it heats up fast, it retains heat nicely and evenly. The eggs are cooked fast but does not stick if you season and oil your pan beforehand. This will last a long time if you take care of it. I really recommend this one if you are looking for a good cast iron non-teflon pan.
- EREric R.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1/11/24Exactly what she wanted!
Needed Tamagoyaki pan that would work with our induction stovetop. Also wanted a handle that would not get hot as we are still honing our techniques and want to make sure we can take our time. The coating is super nice, nothing like the non-stick coatings many of us have come to avoid in recent years. The only thing we have with a similar coating is from a certain French cookware company and it costs SIGNIFICANTLY more than this little guy. In short, very happy with purchase.

This pan has been helping me make wonderful omelets. And it's fun to use as well. Easy to clean up. Super fun to make different omelets for your friends if you have all the ingredients ready to go. And I think I like this method better than French omelet style.
