Hangiri Sushi Rice Bowl

Product Description

A sushi rice bowl which has been handcrafted in Japan using Sawara Cypress wood following traditional techniques. Sawara cypress is highly resistant to water making it ideal to use in moist environments and perfect for kitchen use. This type of wooden bowl is traditionally used to absorb excess moisture from cooked rice, and help it cool quickly.

Available in sizes 27cm, 30cm, and 33cm.

Please note that each wooden bowl will differ slightly due to differing colours, grains, and tones of sawara cypress wood. 

It is natural for wood resin to appear on the surface of the sawara cypress wood. This resin is not harmful at all, and is what imparts a fresh cypress scent. If you are concerned about the stickiness, it can be wiped off with rubbing alcohol
