A precision-machined cast iron pot made from a proprietary iron and three layers of enamel
At the heart of Vermicular lies the 80 year old Hijikata family foundry in Japan where a proprietary blend of vermicular iron is heated to 2700°F and poured into sand molds. Once it cools, each lid and base of the Musui cast iron pot is hand-machined to fit together perfectly. Finished with a triple-layered enamel coating and ergonomic handles, it’s an heirloom piece of cookware that’ll bring thoughtful design and impressive versatility to your kitchen.

Here’s some helpful information before you start cooking with your Musui cast iron pot:
- The Musui can be used on its own on any gas, electric, or induction cooktops, as well as in the oven
- Before using it for the first time, it’s helpful to boil water in your Musui to see how steam escapes at different temperature settings on your stove
- The contact area of the pot and lid is not enamel-coated to achieve a precision seal and must be seasoned by rubbing on a thin coat of cooking oil before the first several uses
- Always dry the pot immediately after washing
- Reference page 184 of the included cookbook for a detailed Heating Guide
- The cookbook also contains basic recommendations for each cooking technique
