Onigiri – Japan’s Original Travelling Food
Onigiri (Japanese rice balls) are a beloved everyday staple in Japan. Made from steamed rice compressed into a triangle, ball, or cylinder, they’re often wrapped in nori and filled or lightly seasoned with salt. Simple, portable and comforting, onigiri have been enjoyed for centuries.

A Bit of History
Before refrigeration, onigiri were created as a way to preserve freshly cooked rice so it could be taken on the road. Travellers, samurai, soldiers, and farm workers all relied on these compact rice bundles for nourishment throughout the day.
