Ceramic rice bowls are believed to have originated in Japan and then migrated to Korea, China, and other parts of Asia. Distinguished by their nature influenced designs, motifs, durability, and water absorbency, Japanese earthenware is perhaps the oldest ceramic tradition in the world.

Incredibly versatile, rice bowls combine fresh vegetables, grains, and protein making them a colourful and healthy dinner choice.

You can create different versions of rice bowls by layering the bowls with a combination of cooked white, brown, or yellow rice, raw or roasted vegetables, chicken or beef. Toppings could include pickled ginger, basil leaves, toasted peanuts or sesame seeds and a drizzle of gochujang or sriracha sauce.

This quick and easy to prepare Korean Beef Bowl is a combination of fresh flavours and just the right amount of spice.
