About the Rice Ball

A rice ball, known as onigiri in Japan, is cooked rice pressed into a shape you can hold in your hand. It is often molded into a triangle and wrapped with a strip of dried seaweed. Many have a little surprise tucked in the center, like a salty plum or a bit of fish. This printable suits a lunchbox or Japan theme, and the triangle shape is easy for beginners to trace.
