• White charcoal is hard, burns for a long time and the temperature can be easily adjusted. The raw material, Eucalyptus wood, is slowly carbonized in a charcoal kiln and to finish, air is pumped into the kiln and the wood is burned at a temperature of over 1000 degrees Celsius, then a mixture of ash and sand is poured on top to quickly extinguish the fire (by oxygen). Because white charcoal is as hard as metal, it is difficult to ignite and will explode if heated too quickly, but once stabilized, the heat will last for a long time and the temperature can be easily adjusted with just a fan. In particular, domestically produced Binchotan charcoal is used in specialty restaurants across the country.
     
    *There are standards stating that only white charcoal made from Maitieuw, Eucalyptus, lychee or Japanese oak can be called “Binchotan”, but people often call any charcoal that is hard and burns well Binchotan.
    ■How to use:
    Ideal for gentle temperature control or when you want to highlight the flavours of the ingredients themselves.
    BBQ/eel/grilled meat/Italian dishes etc.
