Tonsui Kobizen Tonsuette Bowl 12.5 cm * 14.3 cm, Depth 5.8 cm

The aesthetics in traditional Japanese cuisine has always played a vital role, and the choice of dishes is just as important as the ingredients.

While many other kitchens prefer a united white canvas, Japanese leaders use plates, bowls, glasses, service utensils and chopsticks to improve and complete the food presentation.

A TonSui is used for individual portions of food from NABE (melted or Japanese potted) or as small bowl for tempura soaking sauce. Many Tonsui have a unique shape, with handles, but some do not have one.

To hold a Tonsui, just pinch the button between the thumb and the opposite hand index that holds the cutlery and support it with the other fingers on the side.
