How to make Onigiri


1. Pop your cooked rice into a nice mixing bowl. Add the furikake or rice flavouring and mix through evenly. Separate the rice into equal portions, big enough to be a large handful each.

2. Wet your hands with water and rub together with a pinch or two of salt. This stops the rice sticking to your hands and helps keep it fresher for longer.

3. Take up one portion of rice in your hands.

4. If you are hiding some fillings inside, here is where you make an indent, place the ingredients inside and fold the rice over, then lightly press into a ball.

5. Using mainly your fingertips while resting the rice on your palm, start to press and squeeze the rice into a triangular shape, rotating as you go so it’s even.

6. Place a slice of nori on the bottom of the onigiri (the rough side should face the rice) and fold it up towards to the middle of the onigiri.

For best results, make your onigiri while the rice is still warm.

About Kaihon Eggs

This creature is endangered.

Kaihon eggs are remarkable in that they have a fuzzy, leafy texture to them. It feels like you're touching a fern leaf!

About the Kaihon Creature

Kaihons are, historically, one of the most persecuted species in Ark. Thousands of years ago, the superstitious beliefs that once governed Ark (stronger than they do today) lead humans to participate in Kaihon Wing Burnings. Humanity believed that stripping a Kaihon of its wings was a way of balancing the power of Mother Nature with humanity. It was humanity's way of exerting itself against Mother Nature.

As a result, Kaihons have a natural aversion to humans and do not enjoy socializing or being close to humans. However, they are very friendly with their own kind and frequently help each other. Kaihons are very compassionate creatures.

Today, Kaihons are one of the most protected species in Ark. Harming a Kaihon, even unintentionally, can be punishable by 10 years in prison.
