What you can expect

Begin your experience by learning about the cultural significance of onigiri in Japan. Discover why the word “musubu” (to tie or connect) is used and what it represents.

Next, prepare to make your onigiri. Learn how to portion the rice, wet your hands, and add salt. Discover the importance of preparation before shaping the rice balls.

Learn how to shape two traditional forms of onigiri: the triangular and the barrel shape. Practice the technique of gently but firmly shaping the rice, feeling its warmth in your hands.

Choose from a variety of traditional fillings like umeboshi (pickled plum), salmon, kombu (seaweed), and tuna. Learn how to balance the appearance and taste by placing the filling and wrapping the nori (seaweed).

Once your onigiri is ready, enjoy it with miso soup and side dishes. Reflect on the experience and share your thoughts with others.
