This matte black bowl is nontraditional for Suribachi and its purity is considered aesthetically pleasing. A Suribachi and Surikogi may be used interchangeably with a Western mortar and pestle, though its light ridges on the inside make it perfect for pulverizing herbs and small seeds for sauces like pesto or sesame dressing.
This Suribachi bowl is also the perfect size for serving noodle dishes such as soba, udon, and donburi (Japanese style rice bowl), stewed and simmered dishes.
