Tuna & Salmon Onigiri

Recipe by: @kyriethefoodie

These Traditional Onigiri showcase the simple elegance of Japanese rice balls, where perfectly seasoned short-grain rice becomes the canvas for flavorful fillings. The beauty of onigiri lies in their versatility – whether filled with Wild Planet's sustainable tuna mixed with creamy goma dressing or other traditional options like pickled vegetables. The nori wrapper not only holds everything together but adds a subtle oceanic flavor that complements the rice. These portable, satisfying rice balls represent comfort food at its most fundamental level.
