-----Cooking New Rice in a Donabe (Earthenware Pot)----- -----------How to Cook--------------- For 150 grams (1 cup) of rice: Water: 190 grams is optimal. Yamamata donabe (earthenware pot) is less prone to water absorption, so we recommend using slightly less water than with other donabe. Adjust the amount of water to your preference. First, cook over high heat. Then, reduce the heat to medium or low. Turn off the heat when the steam decreases, and let it steam for at least 10 minutes. Steaming is important. ------------------------------------- Directly sold from the kiln Donabe (Earthenware Pot) Size: 8-go (size) Diameter: 26cm x Height 8.8cm Lid Diameter: 237mm Capacity: Approximately 1800ml Optimal for cooking 2 cups of rice --------Donabe Yamamata --------- Both the Iga clay and glaze contain heat-resistant strengthening material (petalite) for donabe.
