HIZO Kajiroshi - White Charcoal 10kg - Binchotan Sono - Medium

White charcoal referred to as 'Binchotan" is the choice of professional chefs and home grilling enthusiasts who demand the best.

HIZO Kajiroshi product line has been inspired by the Japanese cooking techniques made popular with the use of Hibachis.
This style of cooking combines the centuries-old tradition of the "fire bowl" (hibachi) with the development of high-quality Japanese charcoal, binchotan, during the Edo period.

The Kajiroshi White Charcoal hails from Indonesia using Premium Sono Hardwood for the Binchotan style white charcoal, and a mixed range of hardwoods for the Lump Charcoal.

KAJIROSHI Name Origin (Japan)
Kaji = Fire
Roshi = Teacher

HIZO Kajiroshi Binchotan Sono - White Charcoal Features

• Can be re-used multiple times
  It can be extinguished (snuffed) and reused multiple times. One method is to place it in a covered metal container to cut off oxygen until it cools down.
• Long Lasting Burn Times
  Binchotan is generally considered the best charcoal due to it's naturally high thermal properties when ignited. The result is very long lasting burn times with a steady and very hot flame.
• Does not spark when igniting
  Harder to ignite due to the higher density, but that hurdle is greatly overcome with no sparks when wanting to ignite this white charcoal.
• Ashless cooking
  Clean up is a breeze with much less ash after cooking compared to traditional lumpwood charcoal. This means that efficiency of burning all of that fuel is definitely achived with barely anything left behind.
• Virtually no smoke and imparts no additional flavor to the food being cooked.
  Proper grade Binchotan produces virtually no smoke and imparts no additional flavor to the food being cooked.
