Yaki Onigiri Bento

Yaki onigiri is a grilled onigiri rice ball brushed with soy sauce. Crispy grilled rice with lightly sweetened and browned soy sauce creates an irresistible aroma while grilling. Though browning the onigiri on a grill is best (which is why they are a popular barbecue food), yaki onigiri also can be made easily in a skillet. It also freezes well (up to 1 month), making yaki onigiri a great afternoon snack for kids or a quick carbohydrate to add to your bento box.
