6 Onigirazu

Known for their quirky food innovations and flavours, the Japanese have once again struck the culinary world by putting a new twist on the classic onigiri! Imagine a sandwich with seaweed instead of bread – this is known as “Onigirazu”  
There are many ways to enjoy this quirky new dish – pair it with succulent slices of pork collar infused with teriyaki sauce, along with a perfectly fried egg and a refreshing piece of lettuce. Then cover it with rice, shape it into a square  and cling wrap it tightly. Let it rest for 10 minutes and you are all ready to dig in.
Like any sushi dish, rice plays a huge role. For light, fluffy brown rice and less cooking time, we used Kinmemai Better Brown Rice. With their advanced buffing technology, the outer wax layer is gently removed, giving the brown rice grains a smoother texture while preserving all its vitamins and nutrients.
Don’t miss out on these super simple rice ‘sandwiches’.  Beef them up with your favourite fillings for the ultimate to-go snack!
