[Hibino Dougu Series]

The best thing about the Hibino Dougu series is that you can make the tools yourself. The "Copper Pan Kit Size 1 & Size 2" correspond to the actual items Size 1 and Size 2 and allow you to make your own milkpans or frying pans according to your preferences. If you make your own tools, they will be easier to maintain and will certainly feel more comfortable in your hands.

At Tazen, we refer to the use of copper products as "nurturing". This is because the color of the copper changes differently depending on the user. Depending on the frequency of use, care and maintenance methods, the color can change from red to brown or from blue to yellow.

* Please note that only material kits are available for purchase. If you would like to actually make your own pans, please use the QR code (Google Form) included in the instructions inside the kit to make a reservation. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

[Handling of copper products]
・Copper is a soft metal. To prevent deformation or damage, do not rub it with sharp objects, bend it or apply excessive force.
・Do not leave drinks or cooked food in copperware for long periods as this can cause verdigris (copper rust) to form. Although verdigris is harmless to the human body, it may affect the taste or appearance of the food.
・Copper has a very high thermal conductivity, making hot objects feel hotter and cold objects feel colder. Be careful not to get burned.
・If oils from fingers or lips or salts remain on the copper and cause oxidation, it may develop a metallic odour or verdigris. After use, wash with a soft sponge and liquid neutral detergent, rinse thoroughly with warm water to remove oils and dry completely before storing. Scrubbing with baking soda will effectively remove verdigris and oils, neutralising the surface and helping to maintain its shine.
・If you have or suspect you have a metal allergy, please do not use copperware.
・Over time, tinned surfaces can darken and copper surfaces can gradually change colour and texture. This natural aging process has been appreciated since antiquity as the development of a unique "scenery". Please enjoy the characteristic changes of copperware as it matures with age.
