great product, good size, easy to use.
i love that there is a push button at the bottom of the mold, the rice comes out easily and shaped perfectly. I used sushi rice or short grain rice and prepared it "sticky" by following online recipes asking to soak the rice for 30 minutes. really important.
Great idea, hard for me to use
I make onigiri with my hands, the way my mother did when I was a kid. Wet your hands, add salt and/or sesame seeds and shape the rice as desired. This works great, but of course I tried to make cute little shapes for my kids' lunchboxes. I must be doing something wrong, because once I pack this mold well and compress hard, the ball just won't come out in one piece. I tried it by spraying cooking oil on the inside of the mold. This helps, but then of course there's cooking oil on the rice. Wish I could figure this out! So I don't blame the design of this mold, I blame myself. I give it 4 stars for clever-ness, and give me 1 star for dexterity!
Each to use!
I sprayed a little oil on the inside, and they worked perfect. Keep in mind they are large. I guess the serving size of rice is 3/4 cup.
