Okubo House Handmade Rice Scoop Chestnut

The natural, raw wood aesthetic of Chestnut is very attractive. But this rice scoop offers much more than just looks. Often cooking utensils carry too much bulk, which makes for a clumsy cooking experience. Not so with Okubo House’s impressive work. The size, shape and feel are top notch. The functionality of this rice scoop is amazing, making turning, flipping, or mixing ingredients surprisingly easy and comfortable. And Chestnut offers excellent durability and water resistance unlike many other wood varieties. It is surprisingly resistant to rice sticking to it!

When referring to cooking and kitchen prep, a famous chef once said, “Use your hands whenever possible.” At Hinoki Kitchen Craft, we recommend to, “use wood whenever possible” while in the kitchen. Okubo House embodies this philosophy quite well. All products are handmade using natural materials. In fact, no filing is used when making these products, only a specific planing technique, which leaves few if any scratches. And this technique is much more resistant to scratches.

Okubo House, founded in 2012 in Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture, produces unique, high quality wooden kitchen tools.
