Onigiri Rice Balls Recipe Onigiri Rice Balls Recipe Onigiri is rather easy to make with only three ingredients: cooked rice, seasoning, and nori seaweed to decorate. Each resident can make their own. The shapes you make will improve with practice! You will need: Japanese rice - 2 cups Furikake seasoning - 1 tablespoon Nori seaweed A bowl of warm water with 2 teaspoons of salt Optional: drained flaked tinned salmon NOTE: Furikake is rice seasoning and comes in many flavors. Don’t buy any seasoning with chilli or wasabi. Cook the rice: Make 2 cups of rice in a rice cooker according to instructions or use the absorption method below. Cooking rice by absorption method (if rice cooker is not available) Wash 2 cups of rice 3 times until the water runs clear. Drain and place rice in a heavy-bottomed pot with 2 cups of water over high heat. Cover and allow to boil, then turn the heat down to low. Cook for 15 minutes - do not open the lid! After 15 minutes, remove from heat and wait another 10 minutes, with lid on. After 10 minutes, remove the lid and turn rice 3 or 4 times from the bottom with a spatula. Make the Onigiri Wash your hands thoroughly. Sprinkle the seasoning over the rice and lightly mix. Wet your hands in the salty water (each participant should have their own salty water) and start to form a triangle with your hands (without squishing the rice - it must remain fluffy). Watch someone making Onigiri in this video. If it's too difficult, make a fluffy ball instead.

Cover and reshape the ball. Wrap a strip of nori around it anyway you want. Onigiri Rice Balls Recipe © GoldenCarers.com Page 2 of 2.

  • Evaluation of Japonica Rice (Oryza Sativa L.) Varieties and Their Improvement in Terms of Stability, Yield and Cooking Quality by Pure-Line Selection in Thailand

Recently, the agronomic traits of DOA1 and DOA2 were altered, affecting yield and cooking quality. Thus, the objectives of this study were to evaluate the agronomic traits and cooking quality of DOA1 and DOA2 and those of exotic japonica varieties in different locations, including the Kamphaeng Saen and Phan districts (WS16). DOA2 was improved by pure-line selection. The results showed that the Phan district was better suited to grow japonica varieties than the Kamphaeng Saen district and that DOA2 produced high grain yields in both locations. Furthermore, DOA2 was selected by the pure-line method in four generations, after which five candidate lines, Tana1 to Tana5, were selected for yield trials. The results of yield trials in three seasons (WS17, DS17/18, WS18) confirmed that Tana1 showed high performance in terms of its agronomic traits and grain yield.

  • Production and Analysis of Volatile Flavor Compounds in Sweet Fermented Rice (Khao Mak)
    MATEC Web of Conferences 192, 03044 (2018) https://doi.org/10.1051/matecconf/201819203044 ICEAST 2018 Production and analysis of volatile flavor compounds in sweet fermented rice (Khao Mak) Jittimon Wongsa1,*, Vilai Rungsardthong2, and Tamaki Yasutomo3 1Department of Agricultural Engineering for Industry, Faculty of Industrial Technology and Management, King Mongkut's University of Technology North Bangkok Prachinburi Campus, Prachinburi, Thailand 2Department of Agro-Industrial, Food and Environmental Technology, Faculty of Applied Science, Food and Agro-Industry Research Center, King Mongkut’s University of Technology North Bangkok, Bangkok, Thailand 3Department of Bioresource Technology, National Institute of Technology, Okinawa National College of Technology, Okinawa, Japan Abstract. Khao Mak is a sweet fermented rice-based dessert with a unique flavor profile commonly found throughout Thailand. The traditional starter culture (Look Pang) contains yeast, mold and herbs, which is used to ferment cooked glutinous rice. This research studied production of Khao Mak which resulted in volatile flavor compounds that were affected by rice varieties, including white glutinous rice (Kor Khor 6), Japanese rice (Hitomebore) and black glutinous rice (Kam Doi and Leum Phua). Total soluble solids (TSS) as degree Brix, pH, and alcohol concentrations were measured daily during the fermentation period. Volatile flavor compounds were separated and identified by gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS). At the end of the fermentation, samples had pH ranging from 3.91±0.16 to 4.30±0.09, total soluble solids of 32.65±1.65 to 44.02±1.72qBrix, and alcohol concentrations between 0.33±0.03 and 0.38±0.03% (v/v). The potent odors associated with Khao Mak were alcohol, wine-like, whiskey-like, solvent-like, sweet and fruity.

  • More Prisoners
    Chapter 3: MORE PRISONERS Sunday, November 21, 1943 Morning: fried eggs, fried potatoes, coffee Lunch: rice, pork and beans, tea Dinner: rice, nimono (lamb with Swiss chard) Every day, I work as a waiter and am getting a good reputation. Every day, many people from camp come to the administrator’s fence. We can see who comes. There would be comments such as “if that guy came, something is strange” or “the man who was supposed to come didn’t show up, so maybe…” Mystifying like a vortex. The lieutenant in charge of the stockade ordered us to prepare food for thirty more people. We told him there is not enough food for thirty more. The lieutenant said, “That’s none of my business.” We are living with barely enough food for ourselves. Now, they ordered us to prepare thirty more servings. Sure enough, twenty-eight boys from Hawaii arrived. These boys have had no food or drink since the night before because they were detained in the tents we used to occupy. We had to work so hard because we had to feed them first. Now, the inmates total sixty-eight. Twelve of us were moved to a small room adjacent to the shower. We asked today's newcomers about what was going on in camp. One said that the people in camp were collecting five dollars from each block to send a telegram to the Spanish consulate. People were also preparing comfort kits. Another said the food was getting a little better, but then, another said it was getting worse.

  • Glycemic Index of Single and Mixed Meal Foods Among Common Japanese Foods with White Rice As a Reference Food
    European Journal of Clinical Nutrition (2003) 57, 743–752 & 2003 Nature Publishing Group All rights reserved 0954-3007/03 $25.00 www.nature.com/ejcn ORIGINAL COMMUNICATION Glycemic index of single and mixed meal foods among common Japanese foods with white rice as a reference food M Sugiyama1*, AC Tang2, Y Wakaki3 and W Koyama3 1National Institute of Health and Nutrition, Japan; 2Department of Health Promotion Sciences, School of Health Science and Nursing, Faculty of Medicine, The Tokyo University, Japan; and 3Kumamoto Health Management Center, The Japanese Red Cross Company, Japan Objective: The objectives were to examine the feasibility of using white rice as a reference food in the study of glycemic index (GI) and to examine the GI values of both single and mixed meal foods among rice species, processed rice products, beans, and dairy products. Design: Subjects were served with 50 g carbohydrate content of white rice at least two times (maximum three times) and test food once after separate overnight fasts. Capillary blood glucose measurements were carried out before and during 120 min after each food load. Setting: The study was carried out in an outpatient setting. Subjects: A total of 58 (38 females and 20 males) nondiseased subjects, mean aged 37 y and mean BMI 22 kg/m2 were included. Result: The correlation between incremental area under curve of white rice and glucose was r ¼ 0.853 (n ¼ 10, Po0.0001) and white rice was considered suitable to be used as a reference food. Among mixed meal foods, the combination of carbohydrate foods with vinegar, dairy products, and bean products significantly decreased the GI value of white rice of 20–40%.

  • Umami Café by AJINOMOTO CO
    Umami Café BY AJINOMOTO CO. The Tea Experience For centuries, green tea has been treasured throughout Asia for its healthful, restorative qualities. In Japan, Zen priests drank green tea to keep them awake through long hours of meditation. In the 16th century, a man named Sen no Rikyù, influenced by the study of Zen, envisioned a path to enlightenment through the simple act of sharing a bowl of tea among friends in the spirit of peace and harmony—a practice he called wabi-cha. For Rikyu, making tea while mindfully engaging all the senses was to have a complete Zen experience. We are pleased to have you share a moment of quiet joy with us and experience the spirit of Japanese culture through a simple bowl of tea. Tea Sets We’ve paired traditional teas with Japanese sweets. A great place to start. Matcha with Hanabira Mochi GF V $14 Sencha with Fried Rice A bowl of hand-whisked, jade green matcha is paired with a traditional Japanese tea ceremony sweet.
