Rice ball making experience
This unique experience will give you a great opportunity to experience Japanese culture and cuisine.
If your cycling through the countryside makes you hungry, you can join an onigiri experience in your room at a Japanese inn. You will make onigiri using the famous "Tako rice" grown in the rice fields you just passed.
Cooking rice
Cook rice in a rice cooker. A rice cooker is a traditional Japanese iron pot used to cook rice. Rice cooked in a rice cooker is fluffy and flavorful, perfect for onigiri.
Add ingredients and make rice balls
Choose your favorite ingredients, such as salmon or pickled plum, and form them into triangles or circles. The friendly proprietress will teach you how to make them.
Finally, you’ll wrap your onigiri with a sheet of nori (seaweed), adding a delightful crunch to each bite.
After all your hard work, it’s time to enjoy the fruits of your labor. There’s nothing quite like tasting onigiri made with freshly cooked rice from an okama. The combination of the warm, flavorful rice and the savory fillings is simply irresistible.
