I just came up with this idea on whim.Step 5: You can also fill each of the four sections of the box with plastic wrap, put in the rice, and wrap them up in there, but the squares are quite small, making it difficult to get the wrap in nicely. I recommend doing it as in Steps 6, 7, and 8. Recipe by MAYOMAYO. -

Onigiri Sandwiches Onigiri Sandwiches
Making onigiri rice balls every single morning takes so much time, so I always just sprinkle furikake seasoning. Then I thought I'd stock some in the freezer, since I store frozen rice anyway.If you match the size of the sandwiches to the size of your bento box, after you cut them you can store them just like that.

Spiral Onigiri Rice Balls Spiral Onigiri Rice Balls
On a day when I was planning to make onigiri, I cut my hand with a vegetable slicer.Since I couldn't touch the rice with my hands, I decided to roll the ingredients and it was surprisingly good.-A tip is to roll tightly. If it's loose, the rice and ingredients will spill out when slicing.-Salt the rice well. Taste before rolling.-Another tip is to wet the knife after each slice to guarantee a clean cut.

Granny's Round Onigiri Rice Balls Granny's Round Onigiri Rice Balls
When I was a child, my grandmother used to make this onigiri with her big hands. She used to spread out shredded nori on top of newspaper and roll the onigiri around... This is my favorite onigiri with lots of memories. Because you use shredded nori, the nori won't break apart, thus making it easier to eat. It's safe for your children that way.Use your favorite fillings. Adjust the size to your liking. It's easier to coat with nori if it's very round, but you can also adjust that too. If you work on plastic wrap, it will get all sticky, so use parchment paper. For 2 servings. Recipe by Mikki-an -

Charaben - Easy Chestnut-Shaped Onigiri Charaben - Easy Chestnut-Shaped Onigiri
I used to cover the bottom of the onigiri with black sesame seeds, but that wasn't working too well, so I changed to using nori seaweed.It looks like a chestnut now, so I uploaded the recipe.When shaping the onigiri, make the top pointy and the bottom round and fat to make it look like a chestnut.Cut the nori seaweed in whichever way you like in Step 4. Small children may find a big piece of nori hard to eat, so I recommend a smaller onigiri made with the nori on the right. For 1 rice bowl worth (about 150g). Recipe by Kohanemi -
