Hoso Tokusa Chawanmushi Bowl With Lid
A lidded bowl made for chawanmushi, the Japanese steamed egg custard. Pour in the egg mixture, steam it with the lid on, then take it straight to the table — lifting the lid is part of the meal.
It holds approx. 160ml, a standard single serve, and the fine Hoso Tokusa stripes give it a classic Japanese look.
What's Included
- 1 x Hoso Tokusa Chawanmushi Bowl With Lid
Key Features
- Made for Steaming: Goes into the steamer with the egg mixture inside, then straight to the table.
- Fitted Lid: Keeps the custard covered while it steams and stays warm until served.
- Hoso Tokusa Pattern: Fine vertical lines inspired by tokusa (horsetail reed), a traditional Japanese motif.
- Versatile Small Bowl: Also suits small simmered dishes, appetisers and desserts.
Care Instructions
Wash with mild detergent and a soft sponge, and avoid abrasive scrubbers that may mark the glaze. Glaze colour and finish vary slightly from piece to piece.
