Cast Iron Pot [Donut Shape Dutch Oven - Tami Pan - Regular Size]

**Loved in Japan for 22 Years** The "Tami Pan" is known in Japan as "タミぱん (TAMI PAN)," with its official name being "タミさんのパン焼器 (Tami-san no Pan Yaki Ki)," meaning "Mrs. Tami's Bread Baking Pan." In Japanese, "ぱん (PAN)" means bread. This is because the "Tami Pan" makes it easy to bake bread and cakes even with just a gas stove. In an era when ovens were not yet common in households, mothers who wanted to treat their children to freshly baked homemade sweets chose the "Tami Pan," bringing smiles to many families. **Leave Your Homemade Sweets to the "Tami Pan"!** Beyond its many functions, it allows you to enjoy various dishes during outdoor camping. And in your everyday life, the "Tami Pan" effortlessly brings smiles to everyone. It's more convenient than cooking over charcoal outdoors! ♪ You can easily make various breads and cakes using your home gas stove. Open your windows, enjoy the fresh outdoor air, and savor homemade treats while chatting with loved ones. **The Birth Story of the "Tami Pan"** https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/DSC_0246.jpg The "Mrs. Tami" in "Mrs. Tami's Bread Baking Pan" refers to Kuniko Oikawa, the fifth-generation president, and her grandmother, Tami Omi. Mrs. Tami currently lives in Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture, near Iwate Prefecture. She celebrated her 105th birthday in 2020. During Japan's impoverished times, Grandma Tami obtained a bread baking pan to delight her three young children. Decades later, based on this pan, the "Mrs. Tami's Bread Baking Pan" was recreated using Nambu cast iron. This time, it was made to bake bread for her great-grandchildren. The hope is that the care for loved ones will be passed down through generations. **The Secret to Delicious, Delicate Bread Lies in the Donut-Shaped Structure!** Crispy on the outside, moist on the inside. With the "Tami Pan," even difficult breads and cakes bake beautifully. It can create delicious meals even with rough-cut ingredients during outdoor camping where stable heat sources are scarce. The reason it can achieve this is the hole in the center of the pot. https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/mini.png Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, outdoor activities like camping experienced an unprecedented boom in Japan. As working from home became the norm, the boundaries between work and private life blurred. More people sought to refresh their minds by heading to open outdoor spaces with their most important people, such as family and partners. The "Tami Pan," chosen with the sentiment of "wanting to make something for loved ones," brings deliciousness to precious moments spent with those closest to you. **Product Features** **▍Feature 1: The Lid Also Radiates Heat** Heat rises through the chimney-shaped opening, instantly heating both the pot and the lid. The quickly heated lid also radiates heat, cooking the ingredients from above, creating an oven-like effect that heats from all sides. https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/tamipan-img_tw_01.png **▍Feature 2: Even Heat Convection** Heat convection within the pot ensures ingredients are heated evenly, speeding up cooking time. It cooks quickly even with low heat. https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/tamipan-img_tw_02.png **▍Feature 3: Appropriately Regulates Moisture** As air escapes through the gap between the pot and lid, it carries away steam, creating a steaming and baking effect. The "baking" and "steaming" cooking methods effectively utilize the moisture within the ingredients, locking in flavor. https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/tamipan-img_tw_03.png **Take Your Tami Pan Outdoors** Like a Dutch oven, the Tami Pan is a beloved cast iron pot for campers.

Insiders even stack the "Tami Pan" and "Tami Pan Mini" to regulate temperature. https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/DSC_0177-scaled.jpg https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/TPL_%E9%8D%8B%E7%84%BC%E3%81%8D%E3%83%8F%E3%82%9A%E3%83%B311.jpg **High Durability That Resists Deformation Even Under High Charcoal Heat** Charcoal temperatures typically range from 300°C to 600°C, and can reach 1000°C when fanned to a glowing red. Whether placed directly in charcoal or with charcoal on the lid, the pot will not warp or deform due to its high-durability cast iron construction. https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/%E7%82%AD%E7%81%AB%EF%BC%93.jpg **Made with OIGEN's Original Cutting-Edge "Bare Casting" Technique** To solve coating issues, OIGEN has dedicated over a decade to researching and refining casting techniques from 300 years ago, ingeniously blending tradition with modern technology to create the patented "Bare Casting" technique. The Bare Casting technique allows the pot to be non-stick and rust-resistant without any coating. No coating means it is completely harmless to the human body. https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/product_skill_02.jpg **Usage Precautions** ◎ Due to the central chimney structure, the flame will pass directly through the opening upwards. Do not place your hand above the chimney opening or peer inside. https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/taiwan_tami01-02.png ◎ Both the pot and lid will become hot during heating. Please use heat-resistant gloves (use leather heat-resistant gloves for outdoor use). https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/TPmini_%E3%83%95%E3%82%9A%E3%83%AC%E3%83%BC%E3%83%B3%E3%82%B1%E3%83%BC%E3%82%AD02.jpg https://oigen.com.tw/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/taiwan_tami02.png **Seasoning and Care Instructions** ◎ Initial seasoning and care are required before first use.
