Carrot Chip Onigiri

I had a bit of an epiphany recently. I have said for years that my favorite food was sushi. But when I was making a batch of onigiri for the kids last month I realized that although I do love sushi, there is another food that is my true favorite—onigiri. The first thing I ate […]

Onigiri (Japanese rice balls) are a constant on our weekly menus in the Fuji household. Whether they are for lunch or a snack, we eat them at least once a week. But if you’ve been reading La Fuji Mama for very long, you already know that! I am going to start sharing a new onigiri […]

Have you had a sushi burrito (sushirrito) before? I’ve been seen them pop up on menus more and more over the past few years. I love them. I think they’re fun! An on-the-go sushi roll makes sense. The other day I decided to whip one up, but was out of rice vinegar, so couldn’t make […]

One of the things that I love about traveling is how it influences my cooking. I came home from our trip to Maui with a sheet of paper filled with recipe ideas. I’ve already shared my Papaya Rawnola Bowl recipe with you, but there are more coming! Today I’m sharing my recipe for Tofu “Spam” […]

The new favorite form of onigiri (Japanese rice ball) at our house is stick onigiri. It’s very popular in Japan right now too, and it’s no wonder, because it’s fun! The onigiri is formed into a stick shape instead of a ball, triangle, etc. The easiest technique is a bit different too. It’s a bit […]

Spring is here!! Things are slowly warming up here in Utah. We had several days of temperatures in the 60s, but then it has snowed the past 2 days. Oh well, we’ll get there!

Remember onigirazu, that cousin to onigiri (Japanese rice balls), that I wrote about a few weeks ago? Well I’m back, but this time with a formula that will set you free so you don’t need to look at a recipe when making one!

The Fujilings have traded one addiction for another. Squirrel and Bug have all but forsaken their love for onigiri and now only have eyes for another—onigirazu. It’s true, and to be honest, I can’t blame them.

As I mentioned yesterday, I filmed a segment for Studio 5 that was all about onigiri. I had an absolute blast. Brooke Walker, the host, is a doll, and was a great sport making onigiri with me. The first time you make an onigiri, it usually falls apart (it takes one or two to learn […]

Yesterday I spent part of the day filming another segment for an episode of Studio 5 which airs today. My segment was all about onigiri (“oh-nee-gee-ree”). (My recipe for Honey Ginger Chicken Soboro Onigiri, which I made in the segment, is posted here!) Since TV time is short, I only got to make the briefest of […]
