About Riceball

Rice balls, known as "onigiri" in Japanese cuisine, are a popular and versatile food made primarily from seasoned rice shaped into triangular, round, or cylindrical forms. They are often wrapped in nori (seaweed) and may contain fillings such as salted salmon, pickled plum (umeboshi), or tuna mixed with mayonnaise. Originating in Japan, rice balls have been a convenient and portable snack or meal for centuries. Nutritionally, they are a good source of energy due to their carbohydrate content. The fillings vary widely, offering potential doses of protein, vitamins, or probiotics, depending on the ingredients. Seaweed adds essential minerals like iodine and helps balance flavors. However, rice balls may be high in sodium, especially if heavily seasoned or filled with salty ingredients, so moderation is key. They represent a healthy and satisfying option when enjoyed as part of a balanced diet.
