I made wasabi-flavored onigiri seasoned with tempura crumbs, green onions, sesame salt, and mentsuyu.

Adjust the ratio of sesame salt and mentsuyu to taste.
If the rice is too dry, add a bit of hot water in Step 3.
This time, I sprinkled some matcha on top. You could also top them with a pinch of ao-nori. Recipe by Mikki-an
