We have some unique items in the Japanese kitchen. You will know the gas stove, the microwave, and the toaster when you see them. You will also see a rice cooker, a rice bin, and a water heater.

Rice cooker

We use western cookware like frying pans and saucepans. To grill fish, we use a special grill or the grill oven of the gas stove. 

The special grill oven

Our kitchen knife is large and wide. This is good for cutting fish. We have a big bowl with a rough surface inside. This is for grinding sesame seeds. We also like to use a big grater for grating radish.
