Inomata Japanese Rice Washing Bowl with Strainer – 2.5-Quart Capacity

Meet Inomata's Rice Washing Speed Bowl, a purpose-built kitchen tool designed to streamline the rinse-and-wash before cooking. With its compact 2.5-quart capacity, it's ideal for mid-size portions and fits neatly under most taps. Made in Japan from BPA-free, food-grade plastic, the bowl feels light in the hand yet sturdy in use, and its shallow rim makes swishing rice under running water feel natural rather than fiddly. The clear material lets you watch the rinse progress, helping you judge when the water is ready for the next step.

Effortless rice washing with dual drains

• Side drain channels floating husks and lightweight debris away from the rice.
• Bottom drains carry away loosened starch and fine particles as you swish.
• Hold the bowl under running water and gently agitate with your fingers for thorough rinsing.
• Continue until the water runs clear to start cooking with clean grains.

Dual drains support fast, thorough cleaning. The side drain helps separate surface debris from the grains, while the bottom drains pull away loose starch and small particles. This design encourages clearer rinse water and prepares rice for a more even cook, without needing extra tools or steps.

Beyond rice, the bowl doubles as a multipurpose kitchen strainer. It handles fruits and vegetables, legumes, barley, and other larger grains with ease, making it a versatile addition to a busy kitchen. The compact form reduces splashes while rinsing larger batches.

• Great for produce, legumes, barley, and larger grains, not just rice.
• Compact and easy to handle under most taps and in cabinets.
• Built for regular kitchen use with simple, efficient operation.

Quality you can rely on. The Rice Washing Speed Bowl is made in Japan from BPA-free, food-grade plastic and is top-rack dishwasher safe, simplifying cleanup after busy cooking sessions. Its thoughtful design supports quick rinsing, straightforward draining, and easy storage.

How to use

• Measure the desired amount of rice into the bowl.
