🍣 Bamboo Sushi Mat 24cm × 24cm — Roll Like a Pro, Naturally

Master maki at home with the Bamboo Sushi Mat 24cm × 24cm—the classic, chef-trusted tool for crafting tight, even sushi rolls. Made from smooth, food-safe bamboo and traditionally laced with durable cotton string, this 24 × 24 cm mat gives you the ideal footprint for hosomaki, futomaki, uramaki (inside-out rolls), California rolls, and decorative maki.

From family sushi night in Auckland to café specials in Wellington or a bento prep at the bach, this mat delivers consistent pressure, clean edges, and reliable grip—without sticking or tearing your nori.

✨ Product Description: Traditional Build, Modern Reliability

• True 24 × 24 cm square gives balanced leverage and room for fillings.
  
• Smooth, evenly milled bamboo slats roll cleanly without snagging nori.
  
• Cotton-thread lacing (traditional weave) provides flexibility and long life.
  
• Low-profile slats distribute pressure evenly, helping you form tight, round rolls with minimal effort.
  
• Naturally non-reactive and low-odour, bamboo keeps flavours pure and pairs perfectly with cling film for ultra-clean prep.
  

Use it for more than sushi: shape onigiri, roll tamagoyaki (Japanese omelette), press water out of grated veg or greens, or set patterns on rice desserts.

🌿 Benefits for NZ Homes, Cafés & Caterers

1) Consistent, tight rolls

Even pressure across the mat helps you achieve chef-level cylinders—no flat spots, no loose ends.

2) Faster prep, less mess

Wrapping the mat in cling film gives quick changeovers between rolls and protects the weave from rice starch.

3) Natural & sustainable

Bamboo is a rapidly renewable material; cotton lacing avoids plastic clips and keeps the mat flexible yet tough.

4) Versatile beyond sushi

Use it to shape omelettes, compress vegetables for salads, or as a textured press for rice cakes and roulades.

5) Compact & durable

Slim profile stores in a drawer or utensil canister; bamboo’s closed grain resists moisture uptake when properly dried.

6) Better presentation

Uniform pressure equals clean slices that plate beautifully for dine-in, takeaway, or catering trays.

7) Budget-friendly tool

Professional results, low cost—ideal for sushi nights, school fundraisers, and café add-ons.

8) Lightweight & portable

Great for cooking demos, food trucks, and bento prep on the go.

🧽 Care & Use Tips (Get the Best Roll)

• Wrap before rolling: Cover the mat with cling film for clean, stick-free work—especially for uramaki (rice on the outside).
  
• Hand-wash only: Rinse in warm, soapy water, then rinse clear. Avoid soaking to protect the cotton lacing.
  
• Air-dry completely: Lay or hang to dry; ensure slat ends are fully dry before storage to prevent odours.
  
• De-odorise naturally: Wipe with a diluted vinegar solution; rinse and dry.
  
• Store flat or rolled (loose tie) in a dry cabinet—keep away from direct heat or sunlight.
  
• Food safety: Use separate mats or fresh cling film when switching from raw to ready-to-eat items.
