Held between the thumb and fingers of one hand, they are used as tongs to pick up portions of food, which is prepared or is cut up and brought to the table in small and convenient pieces, and (except in Korea) as means for sweeping rice and small pieces of food into the mouth from the bowl. Many rules of etiquette govern the proper conduct of the use of chopsticks.
The smaller ends come in contact with the food.Chopsticks are traditionally held in the right hand only, even by left-handed people. Although chopsticks may now be found in either hand, a few still consider left-handed chopstick use as improper etiquette. Some people believe this belief came from a Chinese legend.[citation needed]
Chopsticks are simple in design: merely two thin rods (top and bottom area smaller than one square centimeter, length varies), each slightly tapered. The smaller ends come in contact with the food. Some designs have rings carved around the tips, which aid in grabbing food. In chopstick-using cultures, food is generally made into small pieces. Rice in East Asia is usually prepared to be sticky, which leads to "clumping" of the rice conducive to eating with chopsticks (while rice prepared using Western methods tend to be "dry" and is particularly difficult to eat with chopsticks). The stickiness also depends on the cultivar of rice; the cultivar used in East Asian countries tends to be japonica, which is stickier than indica, a rice used in most Western and South Asian countries.
Chefs and cooks also use chopsticks as a cooking tool. There are longer cooking chopsticks for preparing food.
