Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the Gunkan Sushi Mold safe to use with food?

A: Yes! This sushi mold is made from food-grade polypropylene (PP) plastic, which is free from harmful chemicals and certified safe for direct food contact. It is the same material widely used in food storage containers and kitchen utensils.

Q: What types of sushi or rice dishes can I make with this mold?

A: This mold is designed primarily for gunkan (warship) sushi and works beautifully for onigiri rice balls and musubi. You can fill your shaped rice with a wide variety of toppings — salmon roe, spicy tuna, avocado, crab, or any favourite ingredient — then wrap with nori for an authentic finish.

Q: How do I clean the sushi mold after use?

A: Cleaning is simple! Rinse the mold, press plate, and spoon under warm running water immediately after use. A soft sponge with mild dish soap will remove any remaining rice. Allow all parts to air dry before storing.

Q: Does wetting the mold help prevent rice from sticking?

A: Absolutely. Lightly wetting or lightly oiling the inside of the mold before adding rice is the most effective way to ensure your rice shapes release cleanly and hold their form perfectly.
