Inomata Japanese Rice Washing Bowls, Set of 2

Inomata’s Rice Washing Bowls are specially designed Japanese rice washing bowls for quickly washing or long soaking rice before cooking. A thorough cleansing in the Rice Washer can significantly reduce toxins and chemical levels incurred during the growing process. To soak rice, measure rice into the bowl with a solid bottom and cover with fresh water. Allow to soak for the instructed amount of time then rinse thoroughly. For cleaning rice quickly before cooking, use the Speed Washing Bowl with side and bottom drainers. Measure rice into the bowl and hold it under running tap water. Vigorously swish fingers through to loosen rice bran or starch, and allow husks and other particles to drain through the bottom and side. Continue until water runs clear. Both bowls are great for all types of rice, including brown rice, jasmine rice, even black, basmati, wild, white and short grain rice, sometimes called sticky rice due to its glue-like quality when cooked. Both Rice Washing Bowls work equally well as kitchen strainers for washing fruits and vegetables, legumes, barley and other larger grains. Made in Japan from food-grade plastic, The Rice Washing Bowls are BPA free and top-rack dishwasher safe for easy cleanup. Set includes 1 each Rice Washing Bowl (2-quart) for soaking and Rice Speed Washing Bowl (2.5-quart).
