Thank you for viewing. Used only 2-3 times, this is a beautiful item with the scent of hinoki cypress. It's very easy to use and makes perfectly shaped onigiri (rice balls) with ease. Brand: AKOMEYA TOKYO Product: Onigiri Mold Size: Width: approx. 19cm / Depth: approx. 9cm / Height: approx. 3cm Board Thickness: approx. 1cm *Please consider that this is a used item. When shipping, I will send it via Nekopos if possible to keep shipping costs low. ~~~Excerpt from the manufacturer's website~~~ [Reasons why onigiri turn out delicious] The hinoki wood mold absorbs excess moisture, making the rice taste even better. If delicious cooked rice is left as is in a state with steam, it will gradually lose its stickiness and return to a raw state. This phenomenon is due to the aging of the rice starch. Using a wooden mold prevents this. In addition, the finished onigiri will have a faint scent of hinoki, which is appetizing. [How to use] Before use, wet the entire mold thoroughly with water or lukewarm water.
