不确定在访问日本时应该检查什么炊具和餐具？这里有10件事值得从日本带回您的手提箱。
One of the most frequently asked questions I receive from JOC readers is what cookware and tableware they should buy when they visit Japan. With limited suitcase space, I understand I can’t suggest一切。Living in the U.S., I have trouble finding certain Japanese cookware and tableware from local stores or online stores, so I made a recommended list here for you.
My suggestions are really for someone who enjoys cooking Japanese food frequently and appreciates Japanese household items (if that’s not you, these also make great gift ideas for that person in your life who loves Japanese culture and cuisine!). If you’re lucky, you may be able to purchase these items easily where you are, but generally, these items are pretty difficult to find and can be very expensive compared to the price you pay while you’re in Japan.
谢天谢地，我的孩子的衣服还不是巨大的，所以我可以为这些物品租用一些手提箱空间（让他们为我携带）！希望您能发现列表有所帮助和洞察力。
1. Adjustable Stainless Steel Otoshibuta (Drop Lid) 落とし蓋
otobhibuta或Drop Lid是各种炒食物的必不可少的日本烹饪小工具。这是一种厨房工具，在日本烹饪之外并不常见，因此很难在美国的厨房商店中找到它
For the longest time, I’ve been waiting for someone or some company to sell these adjustable stainless steel otoshibuta on Amazon, but no luckyet。MTC Kitchen以19美元的价格出售它，但您可以在日本以不到10美元的价格找到Otoshibuta。上面的特定特定物约为800日元（$ 8）。因此，当您访问日本时，请抓住一个（或两个为您的日本烹饪伙伴）！
2. Tamagoyaki Pan 玉子焼きフライパン
Yes, there are some non-stick Tamagoyaki pans such as thiscopper Tamagoyaki panavailable on Amazon. But the quality of some pans I purchased before was not very good. If you do maketamagoyakifor your children’s bento or for your breakfast regularly, you might as well stop by a kitchen store and get one while visiting Japan. Here you can find my favorite T-fal brand in the picture below (top left) at Tokyu Hands in Shibuya store.
See all the choices of brands and sizes? These are much better quality and less expensive compared to ones you can find on Amazon.
3. Ladlesおお
You may think I’m silly for listing a ladle on your Japan shop list. But true story… I had a really hard time finding the perfect ladle for serving miso soup. All the ladles I purchased in the U.S. are a bit too big to serve into standard size miso soup bowls. I may sound picky, but I’ve purchased enough ladles to try and all the ladles that I end up keeping are all from Japan. Let me say this, the size, shape, angle of the stem, and the material of these ladles from Japan are just perfect. I rest my case.
Here I took the picture at Kappabashi Kitchen Town. So many different sizes, shapes, and utility of ladles! I also recommend visiting supermarkets (especially the one that has a 2nd floor for home and kitchen goods), Tokyu Hands, and even department store kitchen floor. Try holding the ladles and see the difference!
4. Rice Bowls & Miso Soup Bowls お茶碗・お味噌汁椀
Rice bowls and miso soup bowls are something that we use daily for Japanese families. We have MANY, many variations of rice bowls and miso soup bowls in Japan. High-quality wooden miso soup bowls that are made in Japan are hard to find in the US. While you’re traveling in Japan, grab some wooden bowls. They are light, easy to bring back, and make your daily miso soup more fun and elegant!
我购买了这些米碗，上面饰有各种颜色的富士山图纸。他们每天给我的孩子和我带来微笑。找到一个让您微笑的人，无论碗都有可爱的猫绘画还是美丽的樱花，或者可能是吸引您的合适颜色。
5. Bamboo Baskets
竹制产品在亚洲更容易找到。日本提供了日本制造的惊人的手工编织的竹制产品。有很多竹制的专业商店，您可能会在旅行时发现它们，尤其是当您访问京都，高山，川村和更传统的城市时。
6. Ramen Bowls
Unlike donburi (rice bowl dish) bowls that rims go straight up, ramen bowls have a wide opening on the top with rim going outward. This is especially helpful when your ramen has lots of toppings.
看到上面的图片？我的拉面在唐伯里碗里看起来很聚集，但是当您在拉面碗中提供面条时，食材就有空间来展示自己。
And, you can actually see the soup! So, if you’re a huge ramen fan, do get some ramen bowls when you’re in Japan. Good quality and good looking ramen bowls are so hard to get in the U.S. I got mine at Kappabashi Kitchen Town.
On the other hand, if you love donburi dishes, do get a variety of donburi bowls. Donburi is very common meal in Japan, hence we have SO MANY kinds of beautiful donburi bowls.
7.筷子和筷子休息
即使在我开始拍摄食谱的照片之前，我也是Chopstick的收藏家。关于他们的一些东西是如此吸引人。也许是因为它们很小，我喜欢所有微型的东西。
If you are in Japan, you will see a lot of cute stores that sell kitchen and home goods. I love to stop by to check out some unique chopstick rests and chopsticks whenever I get a chance. Instead of buying a set of 4-5 pairs, I only buy one chopstick rest and a pair of chopsticks that I love from each store. I enjoy picking out which chopsticks and chopstick rests that would go well together, and everyone would have a different set. The mismatch is supposed to be fun!
8. Magewappa Bento Box
Bento (lunch box) is not only for children, adults can also enjoy it at school, work, or even at home. These wooden bento boxes, called theMagewappa(曲げわっぱ), not only is environmentally friendly, but they also make your lunches so much more appetizing and presentable.
It’s a lot more inexpensive to buy bento boxes in Japan than trying to buy online. You can purchase Magewappa at any tableware and bento stores, but it’s a lot easier to go to Tokyu Hands or a bento box section of the kitchen floor in department stores.
I forgot to mention. Bento box for adult is also great for portion control and perfect for those who try to lose some weight (aka me…).
9. Chiffon Cake Pans
我喜欢烤雪纺蛋糕，所以几年前，我在日本购买了两个不同的蛋糕盘（17厘米和20厘米），并把它们带回家。日本雪纺蛋糕盘价格合理且易于使用。我喜欢它们具有苗条和高大的形状，与一个扁平的天使食品蛋糕盘相比，制作漂亮的雪纺蛋糕时，这很棒。
This aluminum chiffon cake pan from Asai Shoten (浅井商店) is VERY famous and you can go to the store in Kappabashi Kitchen Town to find them.
With these pans, you can make my迈耶柠檬雪纺蛋糕,Green Tea Chiffon Cake,Orange Chiffon Cake， 和Earl Grey Chiffon Cake。
10. Plates & Bowls
Some people enjoy shopping for clothes and shoes, but I enjoy getting new kitchen gadgets, pots and pans, and my endless love – plates and bowls. I especially love ceramics from Japan that are so delicate, unique, and of course, handmade.
Some of the plates and bowls are from my grandmother, so they are sentimental pieces to me. My mom kept them in boxes for me knowing that I would need these for Just One Cookbook. I am just happy that I can continue to use this special heirloom tableware.
If you’re curious about how I pack and bring them back home, you can see myInstagram Storiestitled “Packing” in my profile, where I explained some tips on wrapping the ceramics and packing them in the boxes.

在哪里可以在东京地区找到日本餐具？
找到日本陶瓷和厨房用品的最简单的地方是去最近的百货商店或东京手的厨房地板（通常是7楼）。如果您正在寻找一种善良的陶瓷，那么有些商店出售艺术家制作的独特陶瓷。这是东京受欢迎的陶瓷商店的一小部分。
