To use the Yamacoh Ohitsu Rice Container, first cook your rice as usual. Once steamed, transfer the rice into the Ohitsu to keep it warm and maintain its texture. The Sawara wood naturally absorbs extra moisture, preventing clumping. After use, wash the container thoroughly with water and allow it to air dry completely in a cool, ventilated area. Avoid exposing the container to direct sunlight or leaving water inside to prevent damage.

Clean the rice container by rinsing it with water immediately after use and wiping away any residual rice. Air dry it thoroughly in a cool, well-ventilated space away from direct sunlight to prevent cracking or warping. Do not use harsh chemicals or soak the container for extended periods. Proper care will maintain its moisture-absorbing properties and extend its lifespan.
