If you've ever wondered why sushi rice at a good Japanese restaurant tastes balanced, soft and has an almost poetic texture, the answer is probably because they used a hangiri. It may just look like a wooden barrel with copper bands, but this classic rice tub is the heart of Japanese sushi art.
After the rice is cooked, it's mixed here - quickly, gently and with just the right amount of vinegar, sugar and salt. The wood soaks up excess moisture, cooling the rice naturally and allowing each grain to separate without sticking together into a lump most reminiscent of what you find under your feet after walking in your socks through a school cafeteria on sausage stroganoff day.
This model is made of solid wood (traditional cypress-like wood) with classic copper bands. The 52cm diameter makes it ideal for larger batches - around 3-5kg of rice - meaning it's equally at home in a sushi kitchen as it is at an event, class or for the dedicated home cook who takes nigiri seriously.
Please use a shamoji (wooden spatula) when mixing - metal utensils are banned here. After use, wipe the hangirin thoroughly (no washing-up liquid!) and store in a dry place. A thin layer of rice vinegar before use can help keep the wood in trim.
Of course, you can use it for other things too. Perfect for cooling freshly cooked risotto, mixing pickled vegetables, or as a chip bowl for extra festive occasions such as the end of season Doobidoo.
