Bamboo has been actively planted throughout Japan for centuries. Flexible, strong, and versatile, bamboo is an indispensable part of Japanese culture and daily life.
The plant plays a crucial role in Japanese tableware, used as the base material for chopsticks, tea ceremony tools, and lightweight, portable items like baskets and bento boxes.
Young bamboo can match the height of mature bamboo in just three months, and completes its growth in just three years, making it a permanently replenishing natural resource.

Cooking/Serving Chopsticks
Most Japanese families and Japanese restaurants use long, thin bamboo chopsticks for cooking to prepare Japanese cuisine. Especially for delicate dishes such as tempura, it is recommended to use cooking chopsticks instead of tongs, which can crush the crust.
