There’s a fun version of this that they have at 7-11 (or 7 & I) there. Probably other convenience stores too. They come in a plastic wrapper that separates the nori from the rice and filling so it doesn’t get soggy. When you pull a little tab, it somehow removes the plastic from in between without messing up the shape. Magic!
- layer8 3y agoYou haven’t looked at the article, did you?
- boringg 3y agoRight? It's literally the majority of the article .. the onigiri wars.
- defaultcompany 3y agoThe article talks about this at the end. I’m confused about how it works though.
- andreareina 3y agoThere are two layers of plastic wrap, one on either side of the nori. It works because there's no nori at the side and that's the direction you pull the plastic off.
- jncfhnb 3y agoYou have to be pretty specific about how you pull it apart. Most people will ruin their first onigiri because they do it wrong. But basically you break a seal and then pull the plastic out on each side, sliding them out.
- wkat4242 3y agoYeah there's instructions on them but they're in Japanese and the pictures aren't very clear in my experience. But it's not a big deal if you're going to eat it right away because the nori doesn't get soggy that quickly.
- jncfhnb 3y agoIt does ruin the aesthetic of it though
- wkat4242 3y agoOh ok, it didn't really for me. It did pull the nori open a little bit so I had to fold it back in.
- numpad0 3y agoRest assured, everyone is confused first time and no one knows how it works. It's just there aren't many Japanese left that hadn't learned the lesson.
