For the perfect finishing touch to your sushi rice
A Hangiri is a traditional Japanese wooden tub used in sushi preparation. To keep your sushi authentic and traditional, a Hangiri wooden tub is absolutely essential. It is through the Hangiri that sushi rice gains its characteristic sticky consistency, as well as the beloved shine and flavor.
Typically, the Hangiri tub is used in the final steps of sushi rice preparation. The wide, flat bottom of the Hangiri helps spread out the hot rice. This allows the sushi rice to cool faster after cooking, so the rice vinegar and necessary seasonings can be added and mixed in more quickly.
Mushy sushi is a thing of the past!
The Hangiri wooden tub ensures you never have mushy sushi rice again. Our Hangiris are made from high-quality pine wood. The wood absorbs excess moisture from the rice, preventing the rice from becoming mushy. Mushy sushi rice leads to mushy sushi rolls that easily fall apart, hindering the enjoyable eating experience. This can be easily prevented with our Hangiri wooden tubs!
In our range, you will find 3 different sizes of Hangiri:
- 45 x 11 cm
- 60 x 16 cm
- 72 x 16 cm
So there is a size for every use, and depending on your needs, you can choose the perfect size for yourself and your business. ^
All our Hangiris are made from pine wood, notable for its resistance to water and its durability. This ensures a long lifespan for the Hangiris, so with proper care, they can be your faithful companion in sushi rice preparation for years. The rings around the Hangiri are made of copper and are also very durable, ensuring the tub retains its shape despite moisture absorption and release, controlling the wood.
How to properly clean your Hangiri wooden tubAfter use, simply rinse your Hangiri wooden tub thoroughly with clear water, preferably without detergent. Avoid other chemicals or soap. Remaining rice residues can be removed with a brush. It is also important that the Hangiri is not exposed to water for too long during rinsing and does not remain damp for extended periods. This can lead to mold growth and wood peeling.
Dry the Hangiri with a cotton cloth after rinsing and let it dry in a shaded place with good air circulation. The Hangiri should not be exposed to direct sunlight.
