The Inside Scoop
Did you know?
Yaki onigiri is what happens when someone looked at a perfectly good rice ball and thought, 'What if we made it even better?' The answer was a grill and some soy sauce. The charred, caramelized crust is the whole point.
How to eat
- 1Unlike regular onigiri, this one usually comes without nori — the crispy grilled surface IS the outer layer.
- 2The soy glaze can be slightly sticky. If it comes in a tray, eat it straight from there to keep things tidy.
