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. These ceramic cups are typically used for serving chawan mushi, a savory custard that is also steamed in this cup. All chawanmushi cups come with a matching lid.
