Ramen Bowl Set of 2 with Chopsticks and Spoons, 6.3" Black and Blue, 37 oz

Product Description

The Problem With Most Noodle Bowls A standard bowl holds 20 to 24 ounces, which sounds like plenty until the broth is gone and half the noodles are still in there. A real restaurant bowl holds enough, but at 7 to 8 inches across it takes a whole cabinet shelf. This one goes the other way: 37 ounces, 1100 ml, in a 6.3 inch footprint, by being deep rather than wide. Why the Shape Matters More Than the Number A narrow, deep bowl exposes less broth to the air than a wide shallow one, so soup holds its heat noticeably longer. The steep sides also mean you can lift noodles from the bottom and stir without sending broth over the rim, and the footed base lifts the whole thing off the table so heat does not transfer straight through to the wood. Matte Black Outside, Glossy Colour Inside The exterior is matte black, which hides fingerprints and the water spotting that shows immediately on a gloss finish. The well is glossy colour, which changes how broth, noodles and toppings read against the surface. Why Blue Blue and white is the most recognisable palette in Asian ceramics, and this set carries that tone on the inside where a modern matte exterior would otherwise read as plain. It is the easiest of the four to build a table around. What Comes in the Box Two bowls, two matching ceramic spoons and two pairs of dark chopsticks. The rim is wide enough to rest both sticks across the bowl between bites so they never touch the tablecloth, and each spoon handle is pierced so it hangs from a hook or rail instead of rolling across the counter. Stoneware, and Why the Weight Is the Point Filled with 37 ounces of hot soup, a light bowl slides when you pull noodles against the side. Fired stoneware has enough mass to stay where you put it. The bowls are roller shaped rather than slip cast, so wall thickness and depth stay consistent from one piece to the next, and the food grade glaze covers the well and the foot alike. Where They Get Used Ramen, pho, udon, soba, laksa, tonkotsu, miso soup, wonton soup, congee, hot pot and curry over rice. Also useful as a serving bowl for salad or pasta on a night nobody is making noodles at all. The Dimensions 6.3 inches in diameter. 37 fl oz, 1100 ml capacity. Stoneware, matte black exterior with a glossy coloured well and a footed base. Also Available In These come in four interior colours and in mixed colour pairs. There is a matching 25 oz rice bowl set in the same finishes if you want the table to run as one collection. Care Hand wash to keep the matte exterior even. Stack to store or leave them out on an open shelf.
