Use the Hangiri bowl to mix freshly cooked rice with sushi vinegar evenly. After mixing, allow the rice to cool in the bowl for better texture. Avoid using dishwashers. Occasionally, natural resin may ooze from the wood; this can be wiped off gently with vinegar or ethanol. Always dry the bowl thoroughly after washing to prevent cracks and preserve the copper details.

Wash the bowl thoroughly with hot water after each use and dry it completely with a cloth in a cool, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Do not use dishwashers or harsh chemicals. If resin oozes onto the surface, clean it with vinegar or sterilizing alcohol. Proper drying is essential to avoid wood shrinkage, cracks, or mold. Store in a dry place to maintain its durability and appearance.
