Care instructions
To ensure safe and long-lasting use of this product, please read the following carefully before use.
Before First Use
We recommend washing the product with water before its first use. The product has already undergone a sealing treatment (Mizudome*1), so it is ready to use immediately. There is no need for traditional "Medome" boiling with rice water.
Prohibited Items
- Microwave / Dishwasher / Oven: NOT compatible.
- Direct Flame: Prohibited Please avoid sudden temperature changes, as this may cause breakage or injury.
Handling Precautions
- Product Cleaning: Hand wash with a dish detergent and a soft sponge as soon as possible after use .
- No Soaking: Do not soak in water for many hours. This may cause mold, odors, or weaken the structure. Dry thoroughly before storage.
- Bleach: While soaking in bleach may help maintain the original appearance, we do not recommend it due to potential health risks. We recommend you to enjoy the natural patina that develops over time.
- Staining: Due to the nature of ceramics, deep-colored or oily foods may cause staining or odor transfer.
- Damage: This product is delicate. Strong impacts may cause chips or cracks. If any damage occurs, stop use immediately to avoid injury.
- Storage: Keep out of reach of children to prevent breakage from accidental falls.
*1) Mizudome (Water-proofing treatment) is a specialized process used to prevent water absorption and leakage, which can naturally occur due to the porous nature of ceramics. The sealing agent used in this process is safe and complies with strict regulatory standards for food and food additives.
