A rice paddle is a large flat spoon used in Southeast Asian cuisine. It is used to stir and to serve rice, to dip gochujang, and to mix vinegar into the rice for sushi. Rice paddles are traditionally made from bamboo, wood, or lacquer, and nowadays often from plastic. The specific origin of the rice paddle is unknown, but it has been attributed as artifacts dating back to the 4th Century, particularly one originating from the Silla Dynasty in Korea that was excavated from the Gold Crown Tomb in Gyeongju along with a pot. The Japanese version of the rice paddle, the “shamoji,” is said to have been first devised by a monk on the island of Itsukushima in Hiroshima Prefecture in the 7th Century. In March 2023 Prime Minister Fumio Kishida visited Ukraine and presented President Volodymyr Zelenskyy with a shamoji with the word “hissho” (victory) written on it to pray for Ukraine’s triumph over Russia.
