The TOKONAME CROCK is made from red clay. The red clay is made up of different types of clay and iron, which keeps water absorption extremely low. The walls of the crock are made thick to prevent contents from oxidizing and protects against rapid temperature change, which lactic acid bacteria and yeast dislike.
In addition, the high-gloss glaze makes it is possible to sterilize the entire vessel, which protects fermented bacteria from hostile fungi. The glaze also protects the crock from changing color and absorbing odors. This makes it ideal for preserving foods high in acid and salt, such as pickles, miso, plum, and bran pickles.
