The Traditional

Sushi Rice Tub

Because the secret to great sushi is in the way you make the rice!

 

Sushi preparation made easy with authentic sushi equipment! The wooden Sushi Rice Tub known as sushioke or hangiri, is the container traditionally used to make authentic sushi rice.

Vinegared sushi rice is the basic ingredient for all types of sushi. It's what gives sushi its distinct flavour.

The Sushi Rice Tub is as essential to sushi-making as the wok is to stir-fry. (we've all tried making stir-fry in an ordinary pan: it's messy and just doesn't have the same texture or flavour.) The bare wood absorbs excess moisture and then keeps finished rice safely at room temperature for hours.
Authentic sushi rice has a firm texture, glossy appearance and delicious vinegar flavour. This is only achievable with a purpose-designed Sushi Rice Tub. Makes sushi rice preparation easy in advance and the rice is ready for you to assemble sushi or simply serve in the Tub for DIY sushi.  
The hot rice is fanned cool quickly in the wooden Tub while folding in vinegar mixture until the rice is glossy and workable for sushi making. Clingy, firm, sushi rice is easier to roll. The stylish wooden Sushi Rice Tub doubles as a table-top presentation dish for temaki hand-wrapped cone sushi or chirashi scattered salad-style sushi - perfect for parties!  
The design of the Tub is shallow, flat and wide, making for no-mess mixing. Sushi rice can be flipped for cooling and stays in the Tub! The Sushi Rice Tub is essential for cooks who prefer authentic equipment and makes a great culinary gift idea.  
Spreading a shallow layer of hot rice over the wide surface area of a Sushi Rice Tub allows the steam to escape easily, so you don't get gluggy rice.
