River Light Kiwame Nitrided Carbon Steel Induction Omelette Pan - 13x18cm

The Kiwame ('Ultimate') series comes from River Light, a Japanese maker that produces carbon steel pans and nothing else. This 13x18cm pan is the standard tamagoyaki size — a two- to three-egg roll, the everyday choice at 540g.

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 Omelette Pan - 13x18cm
 

Key Features

  • Designed for Tamagoyaki: The traditional 13x18cm rectangular shape is purpose-built for creating neatly layered Japanese rolled omelettes.
  • 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 the precise temperature control needed for delicate egg dishes.
  • 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.

About River Light

River Light has spent more than seventy years on a single material. That focus produced the Kiwame series: traditional iron pans brought to modern kitchens — rust-resistant, induction ready and easier to season — for home cooks and professionals alike.

Use & Care
  • Care guide: Our step-by-step guide and video for seasoning and care.
  • First use: A one-time 5-minute oil seasoning is all it takes.
  • After cooking: Wash with warm water while still warm, dry thoroughly over low heat, then wipe on a thin coat of oil.
  • Storage: Don't leave food sitting in the pan — it's a cooking tool, not a storage container.
  • Rust: Almost always a sign of too little oil. Scrub it off and re-season — the pan will recover.
  • Acidic foods: Tomatoes and vinegar are fine in short bursts — read our guide before simmering them.
Good to Know
  • Patina: Marks, stains and darkening with use are normal — the surface improves as you cook.
  • Nitrided vs non-nitrided: Nitriding strengthens the steel and resists rust — our buying guide explains the difference between brands.
  • Prefer no seasoning? Our nonstick guide covers the low-maintenance alternative.
  • Induction: Most of our carbon steel range is induction-compatible — check the specs on each product page.
