Could I get some help with how to make an onigiri?
Follow the directions on “How to Cook Rice”. below. However, you might want to leave the rice in the pot for about 20 to 30 minutes before turning the rice cooker or pot on, so that the rice can become sticky. Let the rice stand for a few minutes for it to cool down before proceeding. As you’re waiting, make your fillings (if applicable as this is optional). Whip tuna and mayo in a bowl, cut vegetables, meat, etc to kill off some time. Place a cutting board or wax paper on the counter and wet your hands throughly. This method is to keep the rice from sticking to your hands (although some grains will) and to keep your hands cool from the hot rice. Scoop some rice with a spoon or scooper. Make a deep crater in the rice ball, but don’t puncture it to the point that your fingers slip to the other side! This is where your filling is going to go, so just deep enough to place things in. Insert your fillings into the hole. Make sure that you don’t overfill it! Fold some rice over the hole/crat
