{"product_id":"wood-rice-paddle","title":"Japanese Shamoji Rice Paddle","description":"\u003ch2\u003eUsing Your Lancaster Rice Paddle\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rice paddle was first invented in Japan in the late 18th century by a Buddhist monk. The “Shamoji” as it’s called in Japanese, is the ideal tool for mixing and serving finished rice. They were originally made from wood and used in combination with a traditional Japanese “Hangiri” which is a wood rice bowl used for serving freshly made rice. Our rice paddle is made from local American Cherry, Maple, and Walnut and has a large spoon end that allows for scooping generous portions of rice. Using a wooden paddle on rice as opposed to a metal spoon is important as it will not cut rice grains in half when serving and will not scratch the surface of your cooker. When cooking sticky rice, dip your rice paddle in water each time before serving rice to help make your wooden paddle non-stick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e9” long and 3\" wide rice spoon with large paddle\u003cbr\u003eMade from Pennsylvania Black Cherry, Maple, and Walnut\u003cbr\u003eUsed for serving and scooping rice\u003cbr\u003eMade in Lancaster, PA\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lancaster Cast Iron","offers":[{"title":"Cherry","offer_id":39353842794573,"sku":"ACC-027","price":42.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Maple","offer_id":39353842827341,"sku":"ACC-042","price":42.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Walnut","offer_id":39353842860109,"sku":"ACC-043","price":51.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0081\/6152\/5837\/products\/RicePaddle.jpg?v=1620060886","url":"https:\/\/lancastercastiron.sbs\/products\/wood-rice-paddle","provider":"Lancaster Cast Iron","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
