The plate collects every drop of juice while you slice a lemon, a tomato or a piece of fruit, and on its own it serves the food you have just cut. At 7.48 in on each side, it is the right size for cutting almost anything small, light and easy to handle, and a quick rinse readies it for the next job. The board also makes a handy trivet at the table. Each hinoki board is finished by hand, and the set is made in Japan, in Gifu and Arita. It is dishwasher safe, and it is designed to work with the other Sitaku tools: ginger grater, lemon press, mortar and storage containers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kihara\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLine:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sitaku\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cutting board with porcelain plate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBoard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Solid hinoki cypress\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlate:\u003c\/strong\u003e White porcelain, square; catches juices and serves food\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.48 in on each side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dishwasher safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in:\u003c\/strong\u003e Japan (Gifu and Arita)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eItem number (MPN):\u003c\/strong\u003e KI-14625\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid hinoki cypress board\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhite porcelain plate catches juices\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlate doubles as a serving dish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7.48 in square: compact and light\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDishwasher safe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoard doubles as a trivet at the table\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBest for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSlicing citrus for drinks, cutting fruit, cheese, herbs and garnishes; serving a snack straight from the board; small kitchens and bar carts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho this is not for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBig jobs like carving a roast or chopping a whole squash: it is a compact board.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy cleavers: choose a thick end-grain board for those.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnyone who needs a matching set of large boards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy we carry it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe’ve been curating design-led pieces since 2009, and Japanese craft objects like this one earn their place by being used every day.
