Key Features

• With two-layer structure of outer stainless steel and inner aluminum, this Yukihira sauce pan has good heat efficiency and retention. Especially, its heat efficiency is excellent, and it can conduct heat evenly.

Use & Care

• Compatible with 100V/200V induction heating (IH) and any cooktop except microwave oven.
• Aluminum is vulnerable to strong acidity or alkaline and likely to discolor. This can be prevented if you boil the water that was used to wash rice or water with vegetable scraps in it before first use.
• In case it discolors, boil water with a tablespoon of vinegar or citric acid, or sliced lemon, and let it cool down spontaneously overnight. This can relieve stains or discoloration. Doing this periodically will make long-term maintenance easier.
• After use, wash it gently with a neutral detergent and sponge. Avoid using scourer or anything to possibly damage the surface, which will lead to discoloration or rust.
