HOW TO WRAP ONIGIRI LIKE JAPANESE CONVENIENCE STORE

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_P7UZZa1AE [ezcol_1fifth]  [/ezcol_1fifth] [ezcol_3fifth] change the video setting to HD for better details Hi, here's a random video on how to wrap onigiri, aka rice balls, like those Japanese convenience stores.  The easy-to-pull-away wrapper separates the rice and the seaweed, keeping the seaweed crispy until serving.  This technique will make beautifully wrapped onigiri, perfect for your next picnic, work lunch, or as a gift!  A few notes on how to do it right: Use freshly cooked rice, never day-old, but wait until it's completely cooled (so the steam doesn't make the seaweed soggy). Use triangle-moulds to make the onigiri. Cut the seaweed and allow enough width to cover the sides of the onigiri. Cut a piece of parchment that is at least 2X the width of the seaweed. The parchment in the video didn't actually cover the entire inner surface of the seaweed because it wasn't wide enough.  Don't make the same mistake. Label the onigiri and they're going to be your newest edible gift. NOW THAT'S A WRAP. [/ezcol_3fifth] [ezcol_1fifth_end]  [/ezcol_1fifth_end]

hypothetically wild salmon onigiri

I am not, by a screeching far cry, someone who could hypothetically reach a life with no regret. Contentment to me is an overrated product of philosophy, not of nature, and therefore more often than not, I find myself restlessly curating for a much-er life. I benched more tablewares in the cabinet than the actual number of guests I could ever gather to my hypothetically dinner party. My closet is for someone who apparently comes across great occurrences that call for more than one (ok, five) sequinned Flapper dress. I limited myself to only four vintage-designed bicycles (so far) which I imagine cruising so hipster-ly through Williamsburg where our hypothetical loft resides, just above the hypothetical farmer's market, where I buy hypothetical hydrangeas on weekends. Hey, I could go Paris on you but I want to keep it real. The other day, I crashed into a display of desires that evoked a whole new picture of hypothetical possibilities, a dashing sales-event of the uber-retro and adorable Airstream Trailers with skins so shiny I was blinded by its allure, parked dangerously close within our complex as if just the outrageously bloated price-tag wasn't enough to keep me
