Bonito Flake Rice Ball Bento
- 360 ml Freshly cooked white rice
- 1 tsp Salted kombu "tea" (not kombucha)
- 2 tsp Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Toasted white sesame seeds
- 3 grams Bonito flakes
- 4 sheets Nori seaweed
- Quickly mix the freshly cooked rice with kombu tea, toasted white sesame seeds, and bonito flakes.
- Divide into 8 portions, wrap with plastic wrap, then make triangle-shaped rice balls.
- If you squeeze too much, you will mash the rice, so it's ok if the rice doesn't stick together.
- Cut the nori seaweed sheets into 2 pieces to make triangles.
- Put a desiccant and the nori seaweed in a ziplock bag, and pack the rice balls separately.
- The bento is done!
- Wrap the rice balls with nori seaweed right before eating.
- You can enjoy the crunchy nori seaweed.
