Kyoto Katsugu Aluminum Yukihira Pot 18cm

This 18 cm (7.1 in) yukihira nabe from Kyoto Katsugu is an all-purpose Japanese saucepan used daily for boiling water and simmering. Aluminum is lighter than iron or stainless steel, so it is less tiring to hold, and it conducts heat quickly.

The surface is finished with alumite, a Japanese process that forms a protective oxide layer for extra durability and corrosion resistance, applied within Japan. The pan wall is about 2 mm (0.1 in) thick, thicker than many budget versions, for steadier heat retention.

The handle is solid oak, so its grain varies piece to piece and gains character with use. Rather than a glossy urethane coating, it has a traditional wax finish that keeps the natural wood feel while adding durability and water resistance.

Two spouts are built in: a wider one for pouring larger amounts, and a narrow crow's beak spout for fine, controlled pouring.
