Put the “do” in donabe.
The clay pot known as a donabe has been a staple of Japanese kitchens for centuries, used to make everything from perfect rice to steamed vegetables to kombu-laced hot pots. Bring this ceramic one from the stovetop right to the table (it’s too beautiful not to!) and open the lid tableside for a dramatic presentation.
Safe for gas cooktops, induction burners, microwaves, and ovens. Dishwasher safe.

meh... not that impressive
looks beautiful, difficult to control the temperature, led to much burnt rice. I expected more instructions / guidance on usage and cleaning, but did not receive that in the packaging. it has turned into an overpriced fruit bowl!
