/ck/ - Food & Cooking

what on earth is that? Is that like a heat diffuser for gas fires with a built in grill and lid?

How can you have fish without fish stones?

>>17386211
It’s a small oven with a tray to keep the food out of any liquid that cooks out.

>how the fuck do I use a stovetop fish roasting pan
Insert fish
Apply heat
Remove fish when desired level of cookedness is reached

Most people in Japan don’t have an oven. A good number have a broiling/roasting “drawer” designed for fish.
Your pan is designed for someone who has neither, wants roasted fish, and is limited to a gas burner.

>>17386211
I think it's a pan and lid that's suppose to mimic a broiler drawer. It's never work because the fish is going to steam though. Also who knew the bottom drawer where you keep all your pots and pans was the broiler drawer!

Why do they call it an oven when you cook eat the food of out the liquid?

>>17386248
I feel like a stick or a wire rack would do a better job.

>>17386261
Oven comes from the Latin ovennette which means to cook inside

>>17386192
Just search "electric grill japan" on Jewtube

This is what it looks like. Its got this grate in it to separate the fish from the bottom of the "pan"

>>17386549
Yes. That’s why you use it as explained in >>17386248

They usually need to be separated from the drippings. One of the more common fish for grilling/roasting whole in Japan is sanma (aka pacific saury). It’s also the fish pictured on your box.
It’s a rather fatty/oily fish. So it needs to cook on a grate so the skin can get crispy.

>>17386274
Then why did we start calling the ovennette when we eat food of in it?

>>17386274
Not it doesn't, it comes from the early Germanic root "ofn"/"ovn", which is from the proto-Germanic "uhnaz".
Latin languages use terms derived from the Latin "furnus", such as the Italian/Spanish "forno" or French "four".

>>17386593
Ok so I don't put nothing in it and let it heat on the stove top yeah? I bought this because I cook mackerel all the time

>>17386669
You can lightly grease the grate, if you want, but otherwise no. Clean and prep your fish as normal, and enjoy the magic of simulated broiling on your stovetop.

>>17386669
Basically yeah.
Standard Japanese preparation would be to oil the fish’s skin and sprinkle with salt, then just roast it whole.

>>17386192
Not sure if this helps OP.
But looks like its for gas type stove.
Amazon JP has pictures in the review of it.

glorious nippon. god i wish i could live like this.

>>17386836
That thing in the lower left corner is the "broiler drawer" previously mentioned ITT.

>>17386836
Not me buying a second stove just for cooking fish

>>17386836
Ok yep thats definitely what its for. So basically I don't add anything except the fish and it won't ruin it

>>17386192
>How the fuck do i use this
spray a few pages of newspaper with nonstick spray or oil if you have a sprayer for it, half heartedly crumple it up and light it under the grill part
