Long handle and large paddle
When making sushi rice, it is important to use a hangiri (Japanese cypress sushi rice tub) to season the rice evenly and cool it quickly for the best taste and texture. This bamboo rice paddle is the traditional tool for mixing sushi rice in a hangiri because of the long handle and large paddle, allowing one to quickly but gently fold the rice for optimum seasoning and cooling.
