(kawaii onigiri video via Youtube)

Japan is my second home and whenever I'm away from it, I really miss the scenery, the people, and most especially the food. I love onigiri, the smoked salmon variety in particular - I used to eat it for lunch every day and still probably would, if ONLY it were available here. I also take credit for turning my husband into an onigiri lover as well.


The Koshihikari Toro brand onigiri available at Lawson outlets all over Japan is the best - they use high quality rice and the smoked salmon in the middle is very tasty!

Onigiri is basically a seasoned ball of rice packed with some kind of savory filling in the middle, typically tuna, salmon, or pickled fruit and then wrapped in a crisp sheet of nori. One word - exquisite.

So of course, my husband and I just had to make t-shirts honoring our favorite rice ball.
