  • This is Matsuda-san's unique design for a tamagoyaki pan. Working with Summit Kogyo Co in the traditional metal-working town of Tsubame-Sanjo near Niigata, Matsuda-san has customized everything from the pan's size (it can be used for making even a 1 egg tamagoyaki) to the angle of the handle (the angle keeps your hand further from the flame). Use this pan to make Japanese rolled omelets (Tamagoyaki or Dashi Tamagoyaki). We like how the wooden cover can be used as a serving tray -- just flip your cooked tamagoyaki out onto it.

    We encourage you to spend time seasoning this pan and getting to know its properties including how quickly it heats up. Your time spent practicing with this pan will pay dividends over time.

    What follows are Jizai Dougu’s Care and Usage Instructions translated from the original Japanese:

    Egg Pan Features

    • Because of its small size, you can make fluffy Tamagoyaki even using only one egg.
    • The wooden lid specially made for this pan (or even a bamboo sheet) will help make your dish even better.
    • Not only Tamagoyaki, but also this pan is great for cooking thin-pancakes, wraps and small baking goods.
    • The high-angle handle makes cooking and plating easy.
    • The handle material and thickness has been designed carefully to provide an easy grip.
    • With the unique nature of steel, by the use over the time, it will be easy to handle and enjoy.

    General Notes

    • After removing the product from the rust-proof paper (brown paper), you will find the body of the product made of steel. As it is steel, it may blacken your hands when you touch it. Please also be aware that it may stain your clothes.
    • To prevent rust, after removing the product from the rust-proofing paper, apply a thin layer of oil inside, outside and bottom of the pan (using tissue paper, paper towel, etc.). This will increase the rust-proofing effect and extend the life of the product.
    • Attach the handle and season the pan with oil before use.

    Please refer to the separate instructions below for how to attach the handle and how to oil season the pan.

    Egg Pan Instruction Manual

    • This product is intended for home cooking.
    • Before using it, please read the instruction manual carefully.
    • Improper use may cause accidents.
    • Please be sure to keep this instruction manual.

    How to attach the wooden handle:

    • Remove the wooden handle from the bag and fit the two grooves on the tip of the handle properly into the rotation stopper fittings on the main body.
    • Grasp the bolt loop with your hand and turn the screw at the end of the bolt clockwise until it is tight.
    • Before the use, check that the handle attachment has no breakage or it is not loose, and ensure it is safe to use.

    Before First Use

    This steel pan does not require “dry-burning"; you can use it immediately after seasoning it with oil.

    How to season with oil:

    • Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in the pan, spread it evenly over the entire bottom surface.
    • Fry vegetable scraps, etc., to further oil the pan evenly.
    • Wash thoroughly with water and a scrubbing brush, then dry thoroughly over the cooking stove. You can use it for cooking immediately after this “oil seasoning.”
    • Be cautious with the heat as food tends to burn until the oil is fully absorbed. After using it several times, the oil will be properly blended in, and it will become easy to handle.

    An important tip to let the oil blend in is not to cook immediately after pouring the oil. Turn off the heat and leave it for 2 to 3 minutes, or place it on a wet dish cloth and leave it for about 2 minutes. This series of steps creates a film of oil on the surface of the pan, allowing the oil to blend into the surface of the pan.

    Handling Notes

    • Turn off the heat if the cooking produces a lot of oil smoke. It may ignite a fire.
    • Turn off the heat when leaving the cooking site.
    • Before use, make sure that there are no issues with any part.
    • Do not dry-heat excessively, as it may cause deformation of the pan itself or burn you.
    • The pan becomes hot during and immediately after cooking. Keep out of reach of children and never allow them to touch it.
    • Avoid directly heating the handle.
    • Before the use, make sure the handle is securely attached with no breakage or looseness.
    • If the handle is loose, it may fall off and cause burns. Tighten the hook before use. If the handle is still loose after tightening, discontinue the use.
    • Do not modify or repair the loose or damaged handle as this may be dangerous.
    • Place the pan in the center of the stove to stabilize it before use.
    • Never use it on a kerosene stove or a charcoal fire such as a hibachi grill as it is dangerous.
    • Do not fully fill it up with water, oil, etc.
    • Since this pan is made of steel, leaving food inside it for a long period of time will cause rust, so remove the food immediately after cooking.
    • Please read the instruction manual for the heating equipment carefully and use it correctly.
    • When using an induction cooker or other cooking heater, keep the heat at medium or below. Using at maximum heat may cause deformation or damage to the pan, or cause burns or fire.
    • Pan not properly cared for after use may rust.
    • Do not store in high places that are difficult to reach in order to avoid a risk of a fall when you take it out.
    • Not dishwasher safe.

    Usual Care

    • After use, the steel pan will be oil coated. Wash it with water and a scrubbing brush, dry it thoroughly on the cooking stove and remove all moisture. Oil seasoning it once every three times would help it last even longer.
    • If the pan rusts, scrub it thoroughly with a dishwashing cleaner and a scrubbing brush. Rinse off the cleaner, dry it thoroughly, and apply a thin layer of oil.
    • If food is burnt, boil water to loosen the burnt parts. Remove the burnt with a scrubbing brush or similar.
    • To store for a long period of time, clean and dry thoroughly, and apply a thin layer of oil.

    Handling & Cleaning

    • After use, wash thoroughly with powdered cleanser or salt, then dry thoroughly in the shade in a well-ventilated area.
    • Never expose it to direct sunlight or force fast drying as it will cause the wood to shrink, warp, or crack.
    • To store for a long period of time, wrap it in paper or cotton cloth.

    Handling Note

    The chlorine in tap water may react with wood components and produce black spots that look like mold. This is harmless, but using purified water is recommended to avoid seeing the black spots.

    About wood resin (natural resin)

    Depending on the wood quality, climate and storage conditions, the natural wood may produce wood resin (natural resin) due to its unique nature. It is harmless, and you can wipe off the stickiness with alcohol (ethanol).
