It's a versatile pot traditionally used for cooking rice, but its design makes it great for other dishes too. Made of cast iron, it has a rounded bottom and sits on a stove. The kama's even heat distribution ensures perfectly cooked rice.

Beyond rice, it's used for soups, stews, and simmered dishes due to its ability to retain heat and cook food evenly.

Its adaptability makes it a staple in Japanese kitchens!

Important Safety Information

The cast iron cookware becomes very hot during cooking. Please always use oven mitts or pot holders when handling.
Do not use in a microwave, dishwasher, or dryer.
Avoid sudden temperature changes or dropping the product, as it may cause cracking or damage.
Not suitable for deep-frying on induction (IH) cooktops. For frying or tempura, please use a gas stove.
A slight darkening of food may occur when iron reacts with natural tannins — this is harmless and changes only the appearance.

For full care and use instructions, please see our Iwachu Cast Iron Care Guide.
