As a Japanese person, I've never eaten or ever seen onigiri being made with sushi rice. It's made with just regular plain white rice with no flavoring/seasoning to the rice itself.
I know! That's also why it kept falling apart! It should just be plain boiled rice and salt (optional) + filling. I screamed in horror when I saw him pour the sushi-su onto the rice! 😂😂😂
I think the rice people use in the west is different from Japanese rice, so he just said sushi rice. Like our rice doesn’t stick at all, there’s no way we’d be able to form balls like that with it.
@@myewzek2913 If you add sushi vinegar it won't stick for sure! Have to use short grain rice from Japan or California. Sushi vinegar is never used in onigiri - it's not sushi!!!
@@paranoidhumanoid Unfortunately California’s pretty rich in Asian products. You don’t typically find a lot of regular Japanese rice in a lot of American (his target audience) states. In fact, if we narrow it down a little further, it’s difficult to find different types of rice in the east coast where he lives. So we have to settle for sushi rice nonetheless because Southeast Asian rice won’t stick, with or without vinegar. Hopefully Asian stores can provide more products in the future. (That is unless you lived around this area too and know where to find the right rice? My local Asian stores don’t have much, help would be appreciated :( )
@@atinytrashcan6755 Regular Japanese rice and sweet rice can be found typically at most Asian grocery stores and definitely at chains like Mitsuwa. On the East Coast, particularly in the NY/NJ metro area (where Babish resides in a city with a large Japanese population), there are dozens of Japanese owned groceries including Mitsuwa, Daido, Dainobu, Sunrise Mart, Family Mart, Katagiri, etc. and many Chinese and Korean stores also carry the typical brands like Nishiki and Kokuho, Haru, Homare, and Kagayaki. 3 Walmart locations closest to me near Philly also carry Kokuho and Nishiki here on the East Coast (10 and 15lb bags). Walmart even carries the nori seaweed sheets and Pocky sticks!
Cue 10 year old me thinking Japanese doughnuts actually looked like that (the rice i thought was coconut and the black...square? i thought was a chocolate layer)

This video is a year old but still, here's a tip: instead of applying rice in two parts and squishing together, make a ball of rice and make an indent with your thumb, then add your filling and fold the rice over to close the rice ball back up.
you don’t have to make sushi rice to make onigiri it’s pretty simple just regular japanese rice with a bit of salt & you can put in one umeboshi & add some seaweed on the outside
When I make these, I cook the kombu longer, adding a little more water, until they're tender and not slimy. Makes the texture a lot more appealing to me.
In Japanese traditional way, we never use rice wine vinegar for Onigiri🤣 Su-mesi(vinegar rice) is only for sushi including Maki-zushi or Chirashi-zushi. Plain cooked rice is most important part of Onigiri...so...i confused. Please do not misunderstand about vinegar part. You do not better to use vinegar for Onigiri. (shape of Onigiri is no problem, cuz every person or family have their own way🍙)
@@NukelearFallout ok no one's criticizing. OP was saying they don't typically use rice vinegar outside of sushi rice but to each their own. Chill out dude.
no rice vinegar needed. just some moistened/damp hands with some salt and you are good to form the triangles. you may have had difficulty with the shaping due to the vinegared rice.
omg i cringed when he said make it with sushi rice. Like the ume and seweed is already salty, why are you adding vinegar. also i wanted to reach through the screen and show him how to make the perfect triangles (they weren't bad for a first attempt but it looked like he was struggling and i felt bad)
@@shenak1222 I cringed every time he said ohnigeeRee, it's like "I hear how the word is said, but I'm going to read it in the most American accent possible" he even said it right once at the beginning
I was looking for a comment about this haha Yes, in Japan, onigiri isn’t seasoned like sushi rice, with vinegar and sugar. It is just lightly flavoured with salt so the filling has a chance to shine!
@@sirroderic4794 I watch anime in English half the times because I can't read and watch at the same time but I watched food wars in Japanese since it wasn't dubbed at the time also a lot of the American voice actors sound pretty awful
When I was little my local grocery store would make triangle shaped powdered donuts with a jelly filling. When I saw the show, I thought it was normal.
I've got a triangular onigiri mold that I got for like $3 at my local Japanese import store. I don't keep a lot of oddly specific kitchen accessories like that, but it's definitely worth it if you love a perfect onigiri!
It wasn't censorship as much as it was just changing the dub to better suit the country. I will say this tho when I first saw this episode when I was a kid it confused me. I knew that wasn't a donut but I didn't care enough to find out what it was when I was trying to be a pokemon master :p
I saw this and immediately thought to myself “I’ve always wondered what those doughnuts were about.” Not even 15 seconds in and I’ve learned something today.
Normally you wouldn't use sushi seasoning for rice for onigiri. Typically you just put salt on your hands before forming them for seasoning. I have also found that if you're using a pressure cooker you really only need an equal volume of water to rice. Pactice helps a lot, as Babish found. I have made ume onigiri several times, and I've gotten to the point where they're hard to distinguish from "conbini onigiri."
I do a dash of rice vinegar in the rice cooker but i also learned to just use plastic wrap or cheese cloth to form them rather than bare hands. Place the seaweed strip then mound the rice on the top slightly less than half, add filling, add more rice. Then you just fold up your wrap (folding the bottom half of the seaweed up) and twist the top. Then just form the triangle.
With the Kelp, i find the texture is slightly better if you drop it into boiling water for about 30 seconds before you saute it with soy sauce, mirin, and tiny bit of Saki. Have to be careful though, too long in the boiling water and it gets...mushy and its like chewing on pond scum...
When the first story of Narnia series was translated into Japanese, the Turkish Delight was changed to Pudding. The translator worried that no Japanese would understand what it was for it was not popular there at that time.
He got lost again, got into a fight with their best swordsman, won, and they named the food after him since it's the only thing he ate there The original name fittingly got lost to time by zoro
That's because in some parts of the world today is April 1st because of time zones. Not that it matters, since this video is basically a continuation of the previous video anyways.
I know some people wet their hands with a bit of the sushi vinegar, to keep it from being sticky and to give it that extra bit of flavor. Having really well made rice is essential, though
Something has changed here but I don't know what. Whatever it is I like it. I'm very impressed with this April fools joke though. Really well conceived and exeggutor
Another great episode. I will continue requesting any wacky food from Chowder. That ridiculous show is a goldmine for you to flex your interpretive cooking.
wwwas it? The reason I hated Chowder was precisely because the pilot episode promised wacky fictional recipes and epic quests, and what we got instead was "I'm not your boyfriend!" nagging wife jokes, "Radda Radda" and Chowder literally doing anything to avoid having to actually do work. It was profoundly disappointing to my little wanna-be chef heart. But then, I couldn't stand to watch more than maybe half the first season, so maybe it did more recipes later on??
It looks really delicious! Just so you know, traditionally onigiri use only salted rice, not sushi rice... I bet these are tasteful either way but... just FYI.
Any rice is good just add a bit of salt to it and insert your filling of choice. You can also optionally grind some sesame seeds on the outside in addition to the seaweed.
Can I just leave this here? Babish: Just one big wacky ball of wholesome. Also Babish: A total maverick. Babish, you are high up on my list of celebrities I want to meet.

When I was little my local grocery store would make triangle shaped powdered donuts with a jelly filling. When I saw the show, I thought it was normal.

I've got a triangular onigiri mold that I got for like $3 at my local Japanese import store. I don't keep a lot of oddly specific kitchen accessories like that, but it's definitely worth it if you love a perfect onigiri!
You should make a “Froggy Apple crumple thumpkin” from Chowder
WHAT!? He did _what_ in his cup?
Or burple nurples.

no, in the japanese version it says, onigiri. in the english version because of weird censorship it said jelly filled donuts.
@@venarius5872 that's the joke.
It wasn't censorship as much as it was just changing the dub to better suit the country. I will say this tho when I first saw this episode when I was a kid it confused me. I knew that wasn't a donut but I didn't care enough to find out what it was when I was trying to be a pokemon master :p
@Crystal KayNine I see your point but I'm just telling you I was so young that I would've been confused anyways
That’s a strange way to spell Jelly Filled Doughnuts
Because its japanese!

In this episode: onigiri with pickled plums and kelp and baked babish.
Normally you wouldn't use sushi seasoning for rice for onigiri. Typically you just put salt on your hands before forming them for seasoning. I have also found that if you're using a pressure cooker you really only need an equal volume of water to rice.
Pactice helps a lot, as Babish found. I have made ume onigiri several times, and I've gotten to the point where they're hard to distinguish from "conbini onigiri."
Helpful_Corn yes I agree just salt or water/rice vinegar mixture and salt.
The actual constructive comment I've been searching for
I do a dash of rice vinegar in the rice cooker but i also learned to just use plastic wrap or cheese cloth to form them rather than bare hands. Place the seaweed strip then mound the rice on the top slightly less than half, add filling, add more rice. Then you just fold up your wrap (folding the bottom half of the seaweed up) and twist the top. Then just form the triangle.
'Interesting' way of making onigiri and kombu!
With the Kelp, i find the texture is slightly better if you drop it into boiling water for about 30 seconds before you saute it with soy sauce, mirin, and tiny bit of Saki. Have to be careful though, too long in the boiling water and it gets...mushy and its like chewing on pond scum...

This is so wrong
Onigiri is a three sword style special attack

He got lost again, got into a fight with their best swordsman, won, and they named the food after him since it's the only thing he ate there

It’s gonna be hilarious for the people in the comments that didn’t réalisé it was April first yesterday
That's because in some parts of the world today is April 1st because of time zones. Not that it matters, since this video is basically a continuation of the previous video anyways.

Onigiri isn't typically made with rice wine vinegar, that's just for sushi and chirashi, and other sushi-like foods
Elisa Itakura scrolled too far down to find this.
Yes.
Isn't it just water and 1/8th of salt to that?
Why is that the case? Does it taste better or somethin??
@@dolphinboi-playmonsterranc9668 you never add salt to the rice until its cooked if your trying to make it traditional
Oh wow, what's next? Big Smoke's order from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas?
Yes
Wait, big smoke? Do you mean the "ooooooooohhhhh" guy
Nekotorious yes please
All you had to do... Was follow the damn recipe CJ.
Pro-tip: using Saran Wrap as a sort of hand condom when shaping the rice ball prevents ur hand from getting all sticky with rice
There's also onigiri molds you can buy online, if you want the PERFECT shape. They just pop out!
I know some people wet their hands with a bit of the sushi vinegar, to keep it from being sticky and to give it that extra bit of flavor.
Having really well made rice is essential, though
KentGoSuzuki a glove???
i am really disappointed that he did not grow and harvest rice on his own and he did not scuba dive into the mariana trench to get those seaweed
Something has changed here but I don't know what. Whatever it is I like it.

Another great episode.
I will continue requesting any wacky food from Chowder. That ridiculous show is a goldmine for you to flex your interpretive cooking.
Roman Toth can't agree more
wwwas it? The reason I hated Chowder was precisely because the pilot episode promised wacky fictional recipes and epic quests, and what we got instead was "I'm not your boyfriend!" nagging wife jokes, "Radda Radda" and Chowder literally doing anything to avoid having to actually do work. It was profoundly disappointing to my little wanna-be chef heart. But then, I couldn't stand to watch more than maybe half the first season, so maybe it did more recipes later on??
When you had your "jazz cigarettes" and started making Rice-men I nearly died 😂😂😂
This is the new way im going to refer to this
It looks really delicious!
Just so you know, traditionally onigiri use only salted rice, not sushi rice... I bet these are tasteful either way but... just FYI.
So any rice is good? Because salted rice doesn't sound too specific
Any rice is good just add a bit of salt to it and insert your filling of choice. You can also optionally grind some sesame seeds on the outside in addition to the seaweed.
rpM at what point in preparing the rice do you add salt?
@@loser7528 after you finish cooking the rice. Usually I add the salt individually when I make them into balls before i start filling them
Babish: onigiri are not jelly doughnuts but rice balls with pickled plums
