For the rice balls recipe, look no further than Just Hungry:
Onigiri (Omusubi) revisited: An easier way to make Japanese rice balls, step by step
and her rice ball FAQ.
Here's some of that Korean seaweed we were grooving on (this is a different brand and possibly a different size, but the same stuff).
Finally, here's a video of Molly making a rice ball. It's that easy!
Spilled Milk: Molly makes a rice ball from Matthew Amster-Burton on Vimeo.
Thanks so much for adding video. Now, can you go back to episode one and show us that winter squash slicing technique?
You can also just buy the Japanese plastic molds from Uwajimaya for a couple of dollars.... multiple shapes and that traditional onigiri shapes as well. Super, super easy and fast.
Thanks for the introduction to Oishinbo! I got a couple of the series from the library, and they're so much fun to read!
Thanks for the podcast. Now I'm going to make me some rice balls.
Love the podcast.
Great info - omusubi was our afterschool snack while growing up. Keep up the great work!
