□RECIPES
[ingredients] (5 rice balls)
- 500g cooked rice
- salt
- nori seaweed (to taste)
- water (for moisting your hands)
[TIPS for Making Good Onigiri]
-ABOUT RICE
1. I use DONABE which is a traditional clay pot because it can cook rice moister and flavorful than cooking in a rice cooker. Of course, you can use your rice cooker or a normal pot which has a lid, too.
2. Rice for onigiri should be Japanese short grain rice known as sushi rice and is cooked a bit firm, not gooey.
3. Make onigiri with freshly cooked rice. If you try to make onigiri with cold rice, it’s not gonna be what you want. It falls apart quite easily.
-ABOUT FORMING
Do not form rice balls to hard. You never want a tough onigiri. Onigiri should be flakey when you eat.
-ABOUT SALT
Coat “generous” amount of salt around rice balls if you have more than 1 hour until you eat. I mean a little bit more than you think. If you eat onigiri right away, you don’t need to put too much salt.
-ABOUT FILLINGS
1. Fillings should not be watery. If the filling is too watery, the rice absorb all moisture from the fillings, and it’s not gonna be good.
2. Fillings need to be a bit briny considering the balance of a whole onigiri.
□RECIPES of FILLINGS
① Grilled Salmon
[ingredients] (4 rice balls)
- 100g unsalted salmon
- 1 tsp salt
[instruction]
1. Put salt around salmon
2. Grill them and flake it. If it tasted too blend, you can add some soy sauce or salt.
② Tuna Mayo
[ingredients] (4 rice balls)
- 1 canned oiled tuna (70g)
- 1.5 tbsp mayonnaise (I use kewpie mayonnaise)
- 1.5 tsp soy sauce
- salt (to taste)
[instruction]
1. Remove excess oil from tuna
2. Mix all the ingredients together.
③ Crab Stick Mayo
[ingredients] (4 rice balls)
- 4 crab sticks
- 1.5 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1/2 tsp Japanese mustard (or dijon)
[instruction]
1. Remove excess moisture from crab sticks and flake them into strings.
2. Mix all the ingredients together.
④ Marinated Beef “Yakiniku”
[ingredients] (4 rice balls)
- 100g sliced beef
- 1.5 tbsp soy sauce
- 1.5 tbsp mirin
- 1 tsp white sesame seeds
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil (for stir frying)
[instruction]
1. Marinate beef with soy sauce and mirin for over 10 mins.
2. Stir fry the marinade on a pan with vegetable oil.
3. Add sesame seeds in the end
⑤ Shrimp Tempura “Tenmusu”
[ingredients] (4 rice balls)
- 4 raw shrimps
- flour (for coating shrimps)
- vegetable oil (for deep frying)
- Tempura batter (※1)
・ 1/2 egg
・ 1/3 cup water
・ 1&1/4 cups flour
- Dashi based soy sauce “Tentsuyu” (※2)
・ 2 tbsp dashi stock
・ 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
・ 1/2 tsp mirin
・ 3 g bonito flakes
※1 : It’s still too much for 4 shrimps, so I recommend you to make some other tempura along with this! OR, you can get TEMPURA FLOUR from asian super market to get this way easier!
How to Make Ultimate Tempura at Home
• [ASMR] ULTIMATE TEMPUR...
※2: It requires some specific ingredients like above, but you can totally REPLACE with the mixture of SOY SAUCE and MIRIN, or if you have “MENTSUYU” which is literally seasoned soy sauce for noodle, it’s perfect for it.
[instruction]
1. Devein shrimp and crack its joins for making them straight when it’s fried.
2. Make tentsuyu: heat all the ingredients in a pot and drain and cool it.
3. Make tempura batter: mix egg and cold water well, add flour and mic lightly.
4. Heat vegetable oil
5. Coat shrimp with flour lightly, and put in tempura batter and deep frying.
6. Dip “temtsuyu” before put it in Onigiri!
Thank you!!

These donuts are great jelly filled are my favorite nothing beats a jelly filled donut
@Ava Rogulski-Hoang I know it's just Brock's famous line from Pokemon
@Ava Rogulski-Hoang you are OK but I don't know why 4kids called those things donuts instead of rice balls
They are not donutes
@@aarasko I know it's just Brock's famous line from Pokemon
@@theentertainmentman694 Americans am I right
It took me almost 3 days to make Onigiri the right way, mostly because I am lazy and wouldn't bother keep on trying on the same day.... But after doing it much more correctly, I've started bringing some to work with me in a Japanese Pento Lunch Box and people just saw mines and they wanted some.... then I started making some now and then for my co workers that paid me 5 dollars for each one and I kinda made a little money here and there... some of my co-workers are big anime fans (I myself don't watch many of that) so I'm glad that I can make them happy....
Of course since I am Hispanic and I find myself being asked why do I make good japanese treats than I do with my own cultural food (I'm Puerto Rican and I don't want to make high blood pressure food lol) and I just shrug and say "You DARE try to Culture SHAME MEEEEE"
How wonderful you make Bento Lunch box for your coworkers learning Japanese food culture!
@@TakoshihoCooksJapan I am just learning. Onigiri was my first Japanese treat to make. I am very curious on how to make more yummy things of Japan. I really like it's culture and interesting foods.

こんにちは、おにぎりの作り方の動画を楽しんでいて、他の動画も見ました。 さて、スイスチャードのおにぎりは本当に私の注目を集めました。 これは私にとって必需品です。これらの素晴らしい美味しくて健康的な料理に感謝します。 米国オクラホマからのご挨拶🇺🇸😊
ありがとうございます！それは良かったです！日本語でのコメントに感激しました😃I really love healthy Japanese food! Hope you will enjoy more videos coming soon!
Arigato gozai mashi ta from Australia. When travelling around Japan, one of the quick foods I loved was Onigiri.
It's a bit of a surprise, because I'm the Gaigin of Gaigins when it comes to eating rice. I do like the humble white grain. But it really needs to be with a curry or something like that. However the various Onigiri, whether at the railway station of the 7-11 convenience store, never let me down with taste & that satisfying quick snack for busy people.
I will try making this at home. Thank you.
Wow, great story! Thank you for sharing it. Yeah, Japanese onigiri has wide variety which we never get bored of. Hope you can make something new for your liking!
☺️☺️ yummy 🍙 wish to try one and wish to visit Japan someyears
Thanks!! 🍙 Hope you can try good onigiri in Japan someday 🇯🇵 !!
☺️
Beautiful video! I’d love to see more onigiri videos especially veggie only options!
Thank you for your comment! I'd love to make veggie version of onigiri for you sometime soon! 🍙
@@TakoshihoCooksJapan New subscriber here.. would absolutely enjoy seeing more Onigiri and Sushi ball ideas from you.
Thank you! I'll make one with veggies!
Looks incredibly appetising. Cannot wait to try it myself😁
Hope you can enjoy Onigiri for yourself!
Hi! Thank you for the simple recipes! But for the mayo,did you use the japanese mayo? Or did you use the normal one but add soy sauce as substitute? :)
Hi, thanks! Yeah, I used Japanese mayo called "Kewpie", but I'm sure you can substitute with normal mayo that you have, and adding soy sauce would be fine.
Thank u for ur great video. It was very useful.
Can you describe about one thing in your video? Why did you cover a fabric on the rice pot?^^
Thank you for watching and giving me a comment! The reason why I use a fabric on the rice pot is preventing rice from getting water droplets. If you don't use any fabric, the rice gets too soggy and mushy.
Can you cool sushi rice before you form the balls? And follow up, can you air fry the shrimp and what would be the time/temps for it?
When we make a onigiri, rice should be warm. I've never made tempura in a air fryer, but it seems you can! I just found this recipe. Hope you can make it at home.www.mochimommy.com/air-fryer-tempura/
This was very helpful! Even thought i’m not into cooking a lot but i really love sushi & onigiri and i really wanna try making them at home! So thank you for this! But i just have these 2 questions about this video:-
That sushi rice can be cooked the same way as normal rice right? (Cuz i think my mum cooks it in a way different from urs so i was just curious)
And second of all, when u want to stick the rice together, was that water that used? Sorry if those are dumb questions😅❤️
1. That sushi rice can be cooked the same way as normal rice : YES!!
2. when u want to stick the rice together, was that water that used? : I didn't get the exact quistion. I use normal water and put some salt to fold a onigiri. When I make sushi, I use the mixture of vinegar and water instead! Thanks for asking! Let me know if you have more Questions!
@@TakoshihoCooksJapan Thank you for answering my questions!😊❤️
What is the ratio of rice to water that you use? Mine are a hot or miss at 5:6 (rice:water) in a slow cooker. To be honest, I've had a little more success using the "first knuckle" method.
Sorry for the late reply! It depends on the type if rice cooker and the variety of rice. That's why I didn't mention the ratio. I usually do 9:9.5 (rice:water) for onigiri and sushi because I want the rice a bit firm. For normal bowl of rice, I do 9:10. Funny you knew the "first knuckle" method.😂
oyashiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Arigato❤️❤️❤️
how do you keep the rice together? usually mine falls apart the moment i put it down :(
It depends on the kind of rice, I think. You might have used rice which is relatively dry and scattering. You can try with sushi rice aka short grain rice. You can cook rice a bit more moist if you the right rice. Hope it’s gonna be great!
@@TakoshihoCooksJapan thank you so much, so excited to try these!
Hi, I was wondering how many cups of rice did you cook?
It was almost 500g of cooked rice for 5 normal size onigiris which is about 1.5 cups of uncooked rice.
can i use regular rice or do i have to use sticky rice?
Sorry for the late reply! You can use regular rice!
Takoshiho Cooks Japan thank you so so much!!
Can you make this with ground beef or chicken?
You sure can. Tastes great with some soy sauce, white sesame seeds, grated ginger, etc. Just keep an eye on your fillings that they are not too wet/oily. They will either leak or not allow the rice to stick well, or both.
I'll try this with ground beef or chicken!
what type of tuna is best? does albacore work?
Definitely! You can use Albacore tuna for onigiri!
Hi! You mention 500g of cooked rice... how much is that dry?
225g（7.9oz）!
@@TakoshihoCooksJapan Perfect thanks. This will give a starting point and I can experiment. :D
Does traditional onigiri have stuff inside if I always thought onigiri was just rice
To be more precise, the oldest onigiri was just rice as you know! Actually the plain onigiri is still one of the most popular onigiri that you can find any convenient stores. The toppings have invented crazy nowadays, so I meant “traditional” for the toppings which have been popular for decades.
Is onigiri something you can eat cold?
Yeah, it's usually eaten cold!
5🍙🍘🍚🍣
💕🍙🍙🍙🍙🍙
what can i use if i don't have mirin?
You can add a bit of sugar instead!
I made this but the rice kept falling but overall it good. 10/10
Oh...it happens due to some kind of rice. Glad you liked it though!
@@TakoshihoCooksJapan ah I thought so lol thank you for replying!
What is that green leaf?
It's a bamboo leaf!
@@TakoshihoCooksJapan thanks can’t wait to make onigiri 🍙 !!!!!
now i can die in peace
Haha! Me too!🍙🍙
Once you make the shape what's the green thing called you put on it ?
Sorry for the late reply!! It's a nori sheet which is an edible sheet made of seaweed in Japan.
IS THUS STICKY RICE?
This is sushi rice!
握りすぎると美味しくない
ふんわりがいい
そうですね！You know it. That's amazing!
I used the wrong rice
Too bad... Rice is the most important ingredient for onigiri;( Hope you can find a right one.
