#Japanese #kettle
A handmade Japanese iron kettle can cost over $300. For centuries, artisans have made kettles by pouring molten iron into molds and hammering them out once they’ve cooled. These kettles often have beautiful designs but they’re only used for boiling water. You can buy a mass produced stovetop kettle for $20, so what makes these kettles unique? And why are they so expensive?

5:06 'Ma-ma desu' DOES NOT TRANSLATE TO IT IS QUITE GOOD. It actually means, "It's alright." Shotaro is a VERY modest man with such a refined craft. Shotaro-san, Kampai

If these are made of iron, won't putting water in it and boiling it cause it to rust?

@HRM.H 8 ай бұрын

Thats the whole idea behind using iron. Taste. Its been proven safe for consumption

Rust is prevented through following the care instructions. Empty the kettle and warm it up again to evaporate the water.
