River Light Kiwame Nitrided Carbon Steel Induction Frypan - 24cm
River Light Kiwame Nitrided Carbon Steel Induction Frypan - 24cm
The Kiwame ('Ultimate') series comes from River Light, a Japanese maker that produces carbon steel pans and nothing else. This 24cm frypan has a 15.5cm flat base — wider than the same-size wok's — giving full contact for eggs, pancakes and a couple of fillets, at just 830g.
The steel is nitrided — a heat treatment that hardens the surface against rust — so the pan is ready to season out of the box and easier to look after than untreated iron.
What's Included
- 1 x River Light Kiwame Frypan - 24cm
Key Features
- Premium Nitrided Carbon Steel: The steel undergoes a special nitriding heat treatment, creating a hardened, corrosion-resistant, and durable surface.
- Superb Heat Distribution: Heats quickly and evenly, providing precise temperature control for searing, frying, and sautéing.
- Detachable Wooden Handle: The handle can be removed for compact, easy storage.
- Induction Compatible: Suitable for use on all cooktops, including induction, gas, and electric.
Seasoning & Care
Like all carbon steel cookware, this pan needs a quick season before first use to start building its natural nonstick patina — the nitrided surface makes this easier than on untreated iron. Full step-by-step instructions are in our carbon steel user guide.
