Usage Binchotan takes longer to light than regular charcoal. On a gas hob, you can easily light it with a charcoal chimney starter. Simply place a few pieces in the chimney and put it directly on the flame. Once the binchotan is red hot (about 10 minutes), it can be used in your Japanese barbecue. Alternatively, you can light it with regular charcoal; once the binchotan is red hot, place it in your barbecue and start cooking. After cooking, immerse it in cold water to extinguish and clean it, so it can be used multiple times.

Description

Binchotan is a vegetable charcoal made from ubamegashi oak. In Japan, it was long used as firewood because it does not release carbon dioxide and does not cause poisoning. With a metallic sheen and very dense, binchotan has a very powerful infrared radiation that allows food to be cooked thoroughly without burning on the outside. It is ideal for grilling and barbecues.
