Product description
Also available in the Miso Gift Set, for €27 instead of €30.
The gesture
Dissolve miso paste directly into the broth, without lumps or splashes, with one simple movement and a single utensil.
Why it is different
A fine stainless steel mesh, an ergonomic handle, 20 cm in total length with a 70 mm strainer diameter. Nothing superfluous: it slips into any drawer and fits any pot.
Why this strainer rather than a classic one
It does not try to be versatile: it is designed for a single action, dissolving miso into broth without letting solid residues through, and doing it properly. The workshops that manufacture this type of sieve are often located in the Tsubame-Sanjō region, the Japanese capital of fine metallurgy, where metalworking mastery has been passed down since the Edo period (general information on this type of utensil; the specific workshop for this piece is unconfirmed).
Why I chose it
“I chose this small strainer because it responds to a very precise Japanese cooking technique: properly dissolving miso directly into the broth. What I love about this utensil is precisely its specialization. It doesn't try to be versatile: it is designed to do one thing, and do it well. It is a philosophy of object design often found in Japanese kitchens.”
You will love it if
- you regularly make homemade miso soup
- you are looking for a small, highly specific utensil rather than a multi-purpose accessory
- you want a compact object that can be stored anywhere
It is probably not for you if
- you are looking for a multi-purpose utensil to strain other daily preparations (see our wooden-handled version)
- you never cook miso soup
In practice
Stainless steel, total length approximately 20 cm, strainer diameter 70 mm, made in Japan. Immerse the strainer in the hot broth, place the miso paste inside, and gently dissolve with circular motions; avoid boiling after adding the miso. Rinse and dry before storing.
An object built to last
A well-maintained miso-koshi lasts for decades: rinse it with cold water, dry it, and it returns to its place, ready for the next morning.
