For centuries, the suribachi has been a common cooking tool for the common people. It has supported Japanese food culture with dishes like goma-ae (sesame dressing), shira-ae (white dressing), tsukune (meatballs), and tororo-jiru (grated yam soup). Maruhon Pottery, founded in 1910 in Dachi-cho, Toki City, Gifu Prefecture, the home of Mino ware, accounts for 60% of the suribachi production in Japan. The ridges of the suribachi are hard and durable, and beautiful like chrysanthemum patterns. That technique is the traditional skill of Maruhon. The hard pottery, the reliable ridges (kushime), and the brown suribachi that maintains its shine for many years have been highly valued for over 100 years and across generations. In addition to being a suribachi, it can also be used as a serving dish for other dishes. #SuribachiLarge #Suribachi #ShojinRyori (Buddhist vegetarian cuisine) #NewYear #OsechiRyori (New Year's dishes) #GomaAe (Sesame dressing) #ShiraAe (White dressing) #Tsukune (Meatballs) #TororoJiru (Grated yam soup) #Washoku (Japanese cuisine) #Tororo (Grated yam) #Zunda (Edamame paste) #ZundaMochi (Rice cakes with edamame paste) #CookingUtensils #Kitchen #CookingTools #MaruhonPottery #EstablishedCompany #100YearsSinceFoundation #Maruhon #MinoWare #GifuPrefecture #DachiMade #RamenBowl #LargeBowlDishes #DekamoriDish (Large portion dish) #Utensils #Tableware
