How to Make Japanese Rice Balls (Onigiri)
Japanese rice balls filled with flaked salmon are a delicious meal or snack. You can customize the fillings and even make them with fried rice.

Rice should be poured into a bowl and rinsed with running water.

Scrub it thoroughly with your hands, then drain and rinse the starch away.

Salt, water, and rice should be combined in a small pot.

Turn the burner to high and secure the lid tightly.

Cook for two minutes, then turn the heat down to low and let it cook for 20.

After turning off the heat, leave the lid on for ten minutes to allow the moisture to completely absorb.

Move the rice to a cutting board so it can cool a little.

Soy sauce is used to season flaked salmon.
