Yamada Kogyosho
"Yamada Kogyosho" is a well-known manufacturer among chefs for hammered iron woks and frying pans based in Yokohama city. Their special hammering technique makes the iron pans sturdy and functional.
Original handle
Our frying pan is using an original slim and flat handle, which is easy to grip by any kind of people. The handle is attached relatively closer to the bottom of the pan, and makes it easier to put on various kinds of lid.
Welded handle
The handle is welded to make it is easier to wash and keep the pan clean.
No wax coating
Usually, items from Yamada Kogyosho have anti-rust wax coating. The wax coating needs to be burnt off before seasoning. This procedure cannot be done on induction heating and a gas stove with temperature sensor.To reduce this procedure, we sell pans without anti-rust wax coating on.

Before using for the first time
- The products of "Yamada Kogyosho" handled in our store are not coated with rust-preventive varnish and do not need to be air-baked.
- Wash thoroughly with a mild detergent only for the first use. After washing, drain off the water thoroughly over a fire.
- Please be sure to "acclimate" the product before use.
＜Breaking-in Methods＞
Pour more oil into the pan and fry the vegetables over low heat for 5 to 10 minutes, using the parts of the vegetables that are discarded (such as the heads of leeks and celery leaves), so that the oil covers the entire skin of the pan.
*After the acclimation process, there may be a black substance on the pot. This is carbide of black iron and is not harmful to the body. If this bothers you, please acclimatize the pot again.
How to care
- After use, we recommend washing only with water or hot water and a scrubbing brush, without using detergent. (If detergent is used, the oil film that has become accustomed to the ironware will be removed.)
- Please wash off any stains (burnt, sauces, salt, etc.) thoroughly to prevent corrosion if left unwashed.
*Please refrain from using metal scourers as much as possible, as they scratch the surface. - Iron utensils rust very easily, so after washing, wipe them dry and be sure to "air-bake" them over a fire (*) to properly dispel any moisture.
- After use, we recommend washing only with water or hot water and a scrubbing brush, without using detergent. (If detergent is used, the oil film that has become accustomed to the ironware will be removed.)
*Do not continue heating for a long period of time, but allow it to dry out. - If you only wipe the pot dry, water may remain on it and rust may appear. Allow the pot to cool sufficiently and store it in a dry place as much as possible.
