I made this Nikumaki Onigiri Bento

1. Nikumaki onigiri literally means “meat wrapped onigiri”. It’s usually shaped like a bale of rice (cylinder) and wrapped with a paper thin sheet of beef or pork before being pan fried and glazed in a sweet and savory sauce (like teriyaki). I made this one for Bento Expo, but it’s one of my favorite bento items because it seasons every bite of rice.
