The wari-zanshō (also spelled ware-zanshō) is a traditional Japanese bowl form modeled after the natural shape of a ripe Japanese pepper (sanshō) pod that has split open.
It is characterized by three cut-out openings along the rim, through which a glimpse of the food inside can be seen.
These openings create a subtle visual rhythm that highlights the dish’s seasonal feeling and enhances the overall presentation of the cuisine.
