[Tsujiwa Kanaami's Tetsuki Yakiami Makes You Feel like You Are Outdoors]

Many people have seen Tsujiwa Kanaami's Tetsuki Yakiami on TV dramas and in magazines and have longed to live a life using a grill. The first thing everyone will try once they have one is toast with beautifully crispy and fluffy toast. Some of you may have even considered purchasing one for toasting.

It is simple to use. Put the grill on the stove, heat it up, and place your favorite food on the grill. The fine mesh in the lower section catches the fire and spreads the heat evenly in the upper section through the far-infrared effect. The good thing about direct flame is that the food can be grilled at a high temperature without losing any moisture. Vegetables can be grilled while still moist, and toast, in particular, is best crispy when it is grilled quickly over medium heat for a short time rather than gradually over low heat. Our stove is equipped with a sensor that immediately turns the heat down to low, so when we use a grill, we use it in combination with a cassette stove. If you have a stove with a sensor that cannot be deactivated, please try using a cassette stove.

On a sunny day off, how about taking the cassette stove and grilling net out to the garden or balcony and feel a sense of easy outdoors? Watching your bread turn into the color you like is a luxury, and the savory aroma and crispy texture made possible by the grill make the bread taste much better. When the toast is cooked, the steam that rises from the grill makes for a perfect meal. If you continue to boil water and brew a beverage outside, you will feel that your usual coffee or tea will taste a little different, and you will be able to enjoy it many times more with just a little effort.

And speaking of rice cakes, it is New Year's. I had some leftover rice cakes, so I grilled them on a grill. I put the mochi on the preheated Tetsuki Yakiami to prevent sticking, and used tongs to flip the mochi over. The key is to cook the mochi slowly, rolling it from side to side frequently, so you can see how it browns and how it heats up inside, making it puffier and fuller. Even if you bake them until the outside is crispy to your liking, the inside has just the right amount of elasticity and softness. I was surprised to discover that I could bake a bargain-basement rice cake from the supermarket so well, and how delicious it was. If you are like me who tried microwave ovens, toasters, frying pans, fish grills, etc., and could not get the desired results, I highly recommend you give this a try.
