How to use

After cooking rice, transfer the steamed rice into the Ohitsu to keep it fresh and maintain optimal texture. Use the lid to cover the container securely. After use, wash the Ohitsu with hot water and dry thoroughly in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. If resin appears on the surface, it can be removed using vinegar or sterilizing alcohol. Proper drying prevents cracking and preserves the copper ornamentation.

Care instructions

Wash the Ohitsu gently with hot water after each use and avoid using harsh detergents. Dry the container completely in a cool, ventilated space away from direct sunlight to prevent shrinkage and cracking. Remove any resin residue using vinegar or sterilizing alcohol if necessary.
