Know before you buy
This bucket is designed to be placed inside a larger steamer or wok filled with boiling water. You soak your rice beforehand, place it inside the bucket, and allow the steam to circulate through the bamboo, which cooks the grains evenly while absorbing the natural wood aroma.
Yes, to prevent cracking or mold, you should hand wash the bucket with mild soap and warm water immediately after use. Always allow it to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area before storing it away.
The bamboo adds a very subtle, earthy fragrance to the rice rather than a strong flavor. It is a traditional method used to enhance the natural sweetness of the grains without overpowering them.
No, this bucket is not designed for direct contact with heat sources like stovetop burners or electric coils. It must be used as an insert within a steaming vessel to avoid burning or damaging the natural bamboo.
This bucket is crafted from natural, sustainable bamboo without the use of chemical sealants or artificial coatings. Because it is a raw, handmade product, it is food-safe and ideal for those who prefer chemical-free cooking tools.
