Does the rice have to be hot for this to work or will it work just as well with warm/cooling rice? (Never made this before but I plan to in the near future and don't think I can work fast enough for it stay hot while I make all of them >.<)
@AlanaBlenkhorn Hi AlanaBlenkhorn! It works best when the rice is still hot. I've noticed that as I make them and the rice starts cooling, it doesn't stick together as well. It'll still work with warm rice though. Just make sure to compact it more as you make them. Good luck! :)
@KittyDreadful Thank you! :D The nori does lose its crispness unfortunately. Sometimes when I pack them for my friends, I'll wrap the "naked" riceball in plastic wrap and keep the nori separate so that they can wrap them right before eating. You can give that a try if you want crisp nori with your onigiri. :)
@pannie Thanks! Haha, when I watched Pokemon as a kid, I always wondered what kind of "donuts" they were eating. It wasn't til much later that I found out they were really onigiri. Darn US dubbing! xD
@runnyrunny999 Thanks you! And thank you for having the contest! I love cooking so your contest was really fun! Happy New Year to you too! I hope 2011 brings you more tasty food and fun videos! :D

Hooray! I actually found an English supermarket that sells nori. Emphasis on nori. Searching for seaweed does not get you anywhere :3

Great job! Is that the theme for Fruits Basket I hear? :D

@Taimuffin Thanks! And yes, that is the Fruits Basket theme! I thought it'd be appropriate for an onigiri video. ;P
