Recipe for Tuna mayo onigirazu (New type rice ball)

Tunamayo onigirazu（ツナマヨおにぎらず）

What kind of dish is onigirazu??

A regular rice ball(onigiri) is made by holding the rice in your hand. Onigirazu means not holding the rice with your hands.

Therefore, onigirazu is the term used to refer to the new version of onigiri.

If we were to translate onigirazu into English, it would be “sushi sandwich”.

It became a temporary boom because you can make it without getting your hands dirty and it is easy to eat. Another attraction is the beauty of the cross section when cut. I’m looking forward to it every time because the completion will change depending on what I put in between.

It is recommended for a lunch as it contains a lot of ingredients. Onigirazu can be eaten with one hand, and you don’t need a bento box or chopsticks.

What kind of food is tunamayo??

The combination of tuna and mayonnaise is called “tuna mayo” and is the most popular onigiri ingredient in Japan.

It is extremely popular among children and young men. It is also very popular as a sandwich filling.

I use half oil-free tuna and half oil-soaked tuna. This is because if there is too much oil, it will leak out from between the rice.

The key to making it feel Japanese-style is adding a small amount of soy sauce and wasabi for seasoning.

It is so pervasive in the Japanese lifestyle that you can buy it at any convenience store or supermarket, and it is one of the rice balls that we would like to spread around the world.
