ANGRY BIRDS ONIGIRI BENTO BOX
An idea struck me when it was my son's lunch box day on Fridays. Jon loves Onigiri, so I decided to make him an Angry Birds Lunch Box! Angry Birds Bento Box for a 16-yr-old boy? Never mind, his mum is a big kid too! Guess what? It was my hubby who was more impressed & "snatched" the lunch box from Jon! Yes, Ken brought these Angry Birds to his office instead!!

JAPANESE ONIGIRI AND BENTO BOX
While teaching the 2013 "Cuisine Around The World" cooking elective at my daughter's charter school each 3rd-5th grade student created their own bento box and onigiri for our day in Japan. A bento is the Japanese version of our "brown bag" lunch. They're fun and easy to make, and kids can enjoy making their own lunches the night before. The ingredients list is just some ideas to get you started. The yield is for 3 cups of cooked rice. That amount made about 4 onigiri when we were figuring out how much rice we'd need for 30 students. My students really enjoyed getting creative with their bento and onigiri. The photos are actually some of my students' creations.

Steps:
- Cook sushi rice according to package directions. Do not add vinegar or sugar like we would when making sushi. We just want plain rice.
- Once cooled, dip your hands in the bowl of salted water and take a handful of rice. Mold it into a ball, triangle, or pack it (very tightly) into a cookie cutter, then unmold the shape. Or make a flat disc and put some leftover meat into the center. Fold up the edges of the rice disc to hide the filling, or add more rice on top and form into a ball or triangle. Keep your hands wet to keep the rice from sticking.
- Using cookie cutters or a paring knife, cut fruits, veggies, meats, cheeses, sandwiches, or anything else you can think of, into cute shapes. Stack them, line them up, or create scenes and characters with them.
- Silicone muffin cups are great for keeping foods separate that will either leak juice onto dry foods, or roll around like blueberries and peas.
- Use craft punches or scissors to make shapes out of the nori (seaweed sheets) and stick it on the onigiri. It'll stick nicely to the rice.

Tips:
- Select the Right Rice: Use short-grain Japanese rice (also known as sushi rice) for the best result; it has a sticky texture that holds the onigiri together well.
- Cook the Rice Properly: Rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking to remove the starch and prevent it from becoming too sticky. Use the water-to-rice ratio specified in the recipe and cook the rice until it is tender and slightly chewy.
- Season the Rice: While the rice is still warm, add rice vinegar, sugar, and salt to season it. Mix gently to avoid breaking the rice grains.
- Use High-Quality Fillings: Choose fresh and flavorful fillings for your onigiri. Some popular options include umeboshi (pickled plum), salmon flakes, tuna mayonnaise, and vegetables.
- Keep It Simple: Onigiri is a simple dish, so don't overcomplicate it. Use a few basic ingredients and let their flavors shine through.
