Description Products Steps

Onigiri is a simple and tasty Japanese dish that will be an excellent appetizer and will decorate any holiday table. Triangular rice balls with filling are given to children at school, taken to work, or simply eaten on the go. Try onigiri with tuna - the delicate filling combined with unleavened rice and soy sauce acquires a bright taste and makes eating a pleasure! Use round rice; it holds its shape well and does not crumble.

Steps:

1. 
   Rinse the rice thoroughly until the water runs clear and leave it to absorb moisture for 30 minutes.
2. 
   Cook the rice. To do this, fill it with two glasses of water and place on high heat. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, close the lid and cook for another 15 minutes. Place the rice in a colander, stir and leave to cool.
3. 
   Finely chop the green onions and add them to the canned tuna and sour cream. Mix all ingredients.
4. 
   Form the warm rice into a cake and place the filling in the center.
5. 
   Wrap the filling in rice and form a triangular “bun”. To prevent onigiri from sticking to your hands, soak them in salted water.
6. 
   Cut the nori sheet into 3 x 8 centimeter strips.
7. 
   Wrap each onigiri in a strip of nori, place on a plate and serve with soy sauce. Bon appetit!
