What is the small piece of plastic that comes with Sakura?

The small plastic piece included with Sakura is the rice spatula holder. It is designed to provide a convenient and hygienic place to store your rice spatula when it isn't being used.

How to Use the Spatula Holder

The holder is very simple to use:

1. Clip the plastic holder onto the handle of the Sakura rice cooker.

2. Insert the rice spatula into the holder.

3. The spatula can then be kept securely in place and ready to use whenever you need it.

This means you don't need to leave the spatula loose on your kitchen worktop or inside the bowl, helping to keep it clean, accessible and conveniently stored.

So don't throw the small plastic piece away – it's a purpose-designed accessory for storing your Sakura rice spatula.
