Dantsuki Seiro Pot 21cm

The Dantsuki Seiro Pot works well for a wide variety of uses, but it is particularly useful for steaming, due to the inner ledge of the pot, which holds a steaming basket (Seiro). The Dantsuki Pot is perfectly suited for the Seiro Steamer Basket. The pot also works really well for drop lids, which sit directly on top of food. The Wooden Drop Lid Skimmer Akutori Otoshibuta 18cm fits perfectly. There is an optional lid for this pot as well (Dantsuki Seiro Pot Lid 21cm) This pot is made of aluminum, which is excellent at conducting and distributing heat. 

Dantsuki is a high-walled pot designed for simmering, boiling or steaming. The pot features a interior ledge to accommodate a steaming basket (Seiro) or drop lid (Otoshibuta).

The hammered appearance of this pot results in excellent thermal conductivity. It also strengthens its durability and increases the surface area.
