Suri-goma Bowl with Japanese cypress wooden pestle

Suri-goma is ground sesame seeds and it is sold as rough powder of sesame seeds in Japan and often used for Japanese recipes such as ‘ゴマダレ Goma-dare sesame seed sauce (dressing).

However, freshly ground sesame seeds with this set made by yourself is the best!

which includes:

-Small and cute size Seto-ware mortar

-Full-scale specifications of Japanese cypress pestle, which has a good reputation for its strength.

If you like to cook Japanese food, you should have seen ground sesame seeds in recipes often which is because it makes an important role to Japanese cuisine for garnishing.

You can also ground any other spices and herbs and also can be used for mashing vegetables for babies food.

Check out our YouTube video how we are using it for cucumber.

My another favorite side dish is ほうれん草の胡麻和え (Hourensou no goma-ae) which is Spinach salad using grounded sesame seeds.
