ORINIGIRI Workshop 3: Discover the Real Taste of Rice by Making ORINIGIRI!
Let’s enjoy the natural taste of rice with “ORINIGIRI!” Craft it, Squeeze it and Bite it!
In this workshop, we will make onigiri with a fun origami paper called ORINIGIRI. Why not learn more about rice through a fun quiz and tasting?! This ORINIGIRI paper lets us create onigiri easier and more enjoyably!
What kinds of rice can you try in this workshop?
There are more than 300 kinds of Japanese rice in Japan. Every kind has different flavor, texture and sweetness. In this ORINIGIRI workshop, you can use two kinds of rice from Japan into ORINIGIRI. After trying them, you might be able to tell the difference between the two rices. In addition, we are also going to hold some quizzes and about the rice which will be a great opportunity for you to get to know about the ingredients you just ate!
This time, we are collaborating with Toyo Rice which is famous for Kinme Mai, the world’s first health-inspired Japanese-made, rinse-free gourmet rice. We will be tasting two of their most significant brands. They are both high in nutrients but also keep a rich taste, much like white rice.
What is “ORINIGIRI?”
ORINIGIRI is a new type of art (and way of eating!) that combines the fun features of “Origami” and “Onigiri (Rice balls).” It’s easy to make and guests who participate in this workshop can enjoy the great and interesting onigiri experience!
