Temari Nigiri Bento
- 1 as much (to taste) Hot cooked white rice
- 1 Nori seaweed
- 1 Imitation crab sticks
- 1 Kamaboko
- 1 Black sesame seeds
- 1 your favorite filling Fillings for the onigiri
- 1 Spaghetti strands
- Using a cookie cutter, cut out flower shapes from the white part of the kamaboko.
- Cut the seaweed and crab sticks (you want to first cut off the red bits and use those) thinly.
- Take the hot white rice, and using your desired fillings form into rice balls.
- Wrap the cut seaweed and crab sticks around the rice balls, as shown in the photo.
- Wrap the decorated onigiri in cling film, then press down to secure the decorations in place.
- Secure the kamaboko flower in place by sticking a strand of spaghetti through, and place black sesame seeds on top (to ensure the sesame stays in place, stick the pointed ends of the seeds into the kamaboko).
- Place them in a bento box and they are done.
- These onigiri are quite big, so I had to connect extra crab sticks together to wrap them.
