Warm meals with your favorite tableware

Autumn is the season for good appetites. It's a delightful time for cooking, isn't it?

Serving seasonal dishes on your favorite tableware – just thinking about it makes me excited.

Tableware with a warm texture further enhances the deliciousness of autumn and winter meals.

Shigaraki ware large plates, with their earthy, rustic warmth, are perfect for serving main dishes.

They also look wonderful when paired with dark-colored tablecloths.

 

Serving bread, cheese, and fruit on a wooden plate creates a rustic and relaxed atmosphere.

You could even use a cutting board as a plate.

 

This maple fuki-urushi plate beautifully enhances Japanese sweets.

Elegant tableware elevates your usual tea time.

 

A simple and beautiful Echizen hard lacquer bowl. It's dishwasher-safe.

This 4.5-sun bowl can be used for various purposes, such as noodles, rice bowls, or ozoni soup.

Its size, smaller than a donburi bowl but larger than a soup bowl, is surprisingly versatile and gets a lot of use.

It's also lightweight when held and doesn't get hot easily, which is a great feature.

 

It's the season for warm cafe au lait and milk tea.

Drinking coffee from my favorite mug is truly comforting.

Even in our busy daily lives, it's important to have moments of relaxation, isn't it?

I believe that having your favorite tableware makes cooking and eating even more enjoyable.

And one more thing:

Even washing dishes, which can often feel like a chore, becomes a little more pleasant with favorite plates.

While the tableware arranged with food is certainly beautiful, sometimes after a meal, seeing the plates in the sink still makes me admire them, thinking, "Ah, what beautiful plates."

I quickly wash and put them away, looking forward to using them again tomorrow.

My own favorite tableware. I hope to cherish and use simple, timeless pieces.
