Hokuriku Aluminum Stepped Pot with Wooden Lid
This Showa-era inspired pot blends nostalgic charm with everyday practicality. With its soft sheen and retro silhouette, it carries a warmth that feels both familiar and timeless.
Made of lightweight aluminum, it heats quickly and evenly—perfect for simmered dishes like oden and nikujaga, or for boiling noodles and vegetables.
Durability is enhanced with traditional uchidashi hammer-finish processing, which strengthens the surface and improves heat efficiency. The alumite (anodized aluminum) finish resists rust and food-related corrosion, won’t peel, and makes cleaning easy.
Lighter than cast iron or stainless steel yet tough enough for everyday use, this pot is easy to handle and can be carried straight from stove to table.
The included wooden lid absorbs excess moisture during simmering, locks securely into the stepped rim, and helps prevent boil-overs—ideal for Japanese-style simmered dishes.
Thoughtfully designed and carefully made in Japan, this pot embodies the enduring appeal of Japanese craftsmanship: practical, reliable, and a joy to use every day.
