Usage Precautions
- Cannot be used on direct flame.
- May break if dropped or subjected to impact.
- Metal scrubbers or detergents containing abrasives may scratch the surface.
- Mold may develop if excessive moisture is retained.

No Need to Dig Grooves with a Toothpick
Regular suribachi (mortar bowls) have fine grooves that inevitably trap ingredients, requiring you to tap them out or dig the grooves with a toothpick - making cleanup somewhat troublesome. By removing these grooves and creating a flat bottom surface with steeper sides than conventional designs, we've made it easier to grind ingredients while preventing them from escaping outside the bowl. Without grooves, ingredients don't get trapped and can be easily removed, making washing much simpler.
From Kitchen to Table
With its beautiful design suitable as tableware, you can grind sesame seeds and serve the sesame-dressed dish directly at the table. The spout design also makes it perfect for holding homemade sauces and dressings, or for gradually adding dashi broth to pots during cooking.
