Kyoto Katsugu Iron Frying Pan 20cm Wood Handle

This 20 cm (7.9 in) iron frying pan is designed to improve with use, the way cast iron cookware has for generations in Japanese kitchens. The surface has a hard-tempering treatment, so there is no need for the usual initial burn-off and oil seasoning before first use.

As you continue to cook with it, oil works into the surface, making food release more easily over time. Kyoto Katsugu shaves down the sides of the pan to reduce weight while keeping the heat capacity and strength needed for cooking, so it handles lighter than a pan made without this shaping.

The handle is oak, a wood also used for tools like wooden swords and drumsticks for its hardness and resistance to moisture. The pan measures 40.5 x 20 x 11.4 cm (15.9 x 7.9 x 4.5 in), weighs 640 g (22.6 oz), and holds about 1 liter (1.1 qt). Made in Japan.
