@aisletotokyo: Full Recipe↓ Day 68/100 | YAKI ONIGIRI 🛒 INGREDIENTS: Servings: 3 onigiris - Rice*: 350g (weight after cooked) - Soy sauce: 1 tbsp - Sesame oil: 1 tbsp [Sauce] - White wine: 2 tbsp - Sugar: 1/2 tbsp - Soy sauce: 2 tbsp * Japanese short-grain rice (often labelled as 'Sushi Rice') 🧑‍🍳 METHOD: 1. Boil white wine in a pan to burn off alcohol. 2. Mix the boiled wine and other sauce ingredients in a bowl. 3. Mix rice and soy sauce in a separate bowl until evenly distributed. 4. Divide rice into three portions and shape into rice balls. 5. Heat sesame oil in a pan over medium heat and grill rice balls on both sides. 6. Reduce heat to low, brush sauce on one side, and flip. 7. Brush sauce on top side and flip again. 8. Repeat steps 6 and 7 once more until lightly charred. 💡 KEY POINTS: - In this recipe, we're swapping traditional Mirin for white wine and sugar in a certain conversion formula. As a Japanese home cook, I assure you it works perfectly to replicate the authentic taste. Only one simple rule you need to follow: 👉 Make sure to use a DRY and LOW-ACIDITY WINE (e.g. Pinot Gris). A cheap one is fine, but avoid using fruity wine. - For the best texture, use Japanese short-grain rice (often labelled as 'sushi rice'). For reference, I'm using the product named 'Obento Sushi Rice' in this video. ⛩️ TRADITIONAL OPTION: - Swap white wine for mirin, and omit sugar. ⚠️ DISCLAIMER: Not affiliated with or endorsed by TESCO. #yakionigiri #JapaneseRecipes #JapaneseCooking #EasyRecipe #Tesco
