Reed cooking paper is a versatile Japanese kitchen essential, a strong, non-woven cooking paper that sits somewhere between an ordinary kitchen towel and a sheet of cooking parchment. Made by Lion, it is designed for the professional kitchen and prized for one key quality: it stays strong and does not tear even when wet, so it can do jobs that would destroy ordinary paper.

That strength makes it remarkably useful. It drains fried foods cleanly, absorbing excess oil without falling apart, and it is ideal for skimming and soaking up the scum, or aku, that rises from simmering stocks, soups, and hot pots. Laid directly over a simmering dish it acts as a drop lid, keeping ingredients submerged and evenly seasoned. Beyond cooking it is just as handy for lining steamers, patting fish and meat dry, and wrapping vegetables and herbs to keep them fresh for longer in the fridge, where it absorbs excess moisture.

Supplied as two packs of 75 sheets, it is a practical, high-turnover staple for any busy kitchen.
