Handcrafted Hinoki Wood Rice Bucket (OHITSU)

Benefits of Using a Wooden Rice Container

 Discover the refined elegance of the OHITSU, a traditional Japanese wooden rice container made from eco-friendly Sawara cypress wood. This premium container is a must-have in your culinary collection.

From Japan's Kiso region, each OHITSU rice bucket showcases exquisite craftsmanship with a dignified copper tag enhancing its traditional charm.

The Sawara cypress construction keeps your rice fluffy and aromatic, surpassing electric or plastic containers. The non-airtight lid makes it ideal for dry foods or alfresco dining. Additionally, the antibacterial properties of Hinoki wood ensure a hygienic storage solution.

Maintenance of Your OHITSU Rice Bucket

Proper care of your OHITSU Japanese wooden rice container is essential to maintain its beauty and functionality.

• Resin Management: Remove natural resin with rubbing alcohol or light sanding.
• Hand Wash: Clean with lukewarm water, pat dry, and air-dry in the shade.
• Post-Use Care: Rinse with hot water, drain thoroughly, wipe, and dry in a cool, ventilated area away from direct sunlight.

By following these steps, you can ensure your wooden rice bucket remains in excellent condition for years to come.
