Aesthetic appeal in traditional Japanese cuisine has always played a vital role, and the choice of tableware is just as important as the choice of ingredients. While a lot of other cuisines prefer a plain white canvas, Japanese chefs use plates, bowls, glasses, serving utensils, and chopsticks to enhance and complement the presentation of food. A tonsui is typically used to serve as the dipping sauce for tempura or as a serving bowl for a Japanese hot pot (nabe).
