An ice tray that is convenient for making ice at once. Did you know that the same shape can be mass-produced, so there are various uses in everyday cooking scenes other than summer? Here are four ideas.

1. 1. Grated frozen radish

It is surprisingly hard work to grate radish. If you can afford it, grate it a lot and freeze it in an ice tray, which is convenient even when you are busy. When using, thaw naturally so as not to spoil the flavor. For condiments, ohitashi, sauce making, mizore nabe, etc.

2. Shumai that does not wrap

If you lay the shumai skin on an ice tray and stuff it with shumai ingredients, you can easily mold it without wrapping it. Put minced meat, vegetables and seasonings in a plastic bag, mix them, cut off the corners and squeeze out to reduce the amount of washing.



Remove the shumai from the mold and heat it in a steamer or microwave. It is also recommended for lunch boxes because it is easy to eat without losing its shape. Please use your favorite Shumai recipe.

3. 3. Sushi party at home

When you stuff vinegared rice in an ice tray and turn it over, it transforms into a cute size sushi rice. If you put your favorite sushi ingredients on it, you can make mini-sized sushi that is easy for children and home parties to eat. It's cute even if you mold mixed rice or ketchup price for lunch.

Four. Bite steamed bread

Put the steamed bun dough made from the hot cake mix until about the 8th minute of a lightly oiled ice pan, put it in a frying pan filled with hot water, and steam it to make a cute steamed bun!
