Hangiri Sushi Rice Mixing Bowl Kit - 48cm Wooden Tub With Rolling Mat & Rice Paddles For Sushi Making

About This Product

Ready to make authentic sushi at home? This traditional Hangiri (or Oke) is the key tool for preparing perfect sushi rice. It's a wide, flat-bottomed wooden tub, 48cm (about 19 inches) in diameter, made from natural wood. The wood absorbs excess moisture from your freshly cooked rice, helping it cool quickly to the right sticky-yet-firm texture for rolling. This complete kit also includes a bamboo rolling mat (makisu) and two rice paddles (shamoji). Using a Hangiri and a wooden paddle to mix in the vinegar seasoning is the traditional method—it prevents the rice grains from being crushed. The kit is all-natural, with no chemicals or varnish, so it's food-safe. Hand wash only and let it dry thoroughly after use. Occasional treatment with food-grade mineral oil will keep the wood in good shape. Whether you're a sushi newbie or a seasoned pro, this set gives you the right tools for the job and makes the process much more enjoyable. Impress your friends with restaurant-quality sushi nights!
