About Onigiri

I think a lot of people in the U.S. think that Japanese often eat sushi, but not really that happen. Sushi is for celebration or when a family get together, like Thanksgiving or Christmas here. Onigiri is more familier than sushi for me and I believe for other Japanese people.

Good part of onigiri is easy to make and carry, and ready to eat without chopsticks or utensils. Japanese eat onigiri for lunch, picnic, a snack, and etc.. Almost all the stores which you can buy food carry many kinds of onigiri. It's like sandwiches here.


Here is How to make Onigiri.
