These nori seaweed sheets are seasoned and crafted to enhance the taste of onigiri (Japanese rice balls), providing both a flavourful outer layer and the traditional crisp texture of roasted seaweed.
The combination of soy sauce, bonito and shrimp results in a complex, savoury flavour that elevates the taste of simple rice balls. The nori strips are a third of the size of normal square nori sheets, making it easier to roll the onigiri.
Onigiri rice balls are a traditional Japanese food made from cooked, seasoned sushi rice that is shaped into various forms, typically triangles, cylinders, or balls which are then wrapped with nori (seaweed).
These sheets can also be used for sushi rolls, as garnishes for rice bowls, or even eaten as a delicious snack on their own!
