Whenever there is a celebration, we often have a "Temakizushi party" with family members. However, after years of doing this, some people may find themselves in an extravagant rut, thinking, "Oh no, not another hand-rolled sushi party..."?

Daiso "Sushi Mold for Nigiri-zushi

How about nigiri-zushi? I tried out the "Sushi Mold for Nigiri-zushi" (108 yen including tax) sold at Daiso, and found that it was extremely easy (and fun) to make rice and nigiri-zushi at home.

How to make rice in the "Sushi Mold for Nigiri-zushi

The "Sushi Mold for Nigiri-zushi" is a mold for easily making rice balls for nigiri-zushi. You can make up to 5 pieces at a time. Simply place the prepared rice (sushi rice) in the container, press the lid on, and press.


The important thing is to carefully determine the amount of rice to fill the container. If too much rice is added, the rice will be too hard and the texture will be lost. Serve the rice softly and lightly so that it holds air well.



Then place the press cover on it and press it tightly from the top. It is better to press with both hands so that the force is balanced throughout.


Remove the lid, turn the tray over on the plate, and press the claws to push out the rice inside... 5 pieces of sushi rice are ready! Now put some of the sashimi you bought on top and your sushi is ready!

The sushi is done!

When you try it... it' s even better than you thought it would be ! The fluffy, airy rice loosens in your mouth as you bite into it. The texture is not sticky, but melts easily together with the ingredients. Even an amateur can make sushi... this is something I can serve to others!


Just a "pop" and "pop"! You can easily make nigiri-zushi by simply making the rice with a simple "squee, pop! It is recommended for a party menu with family and friends!
