History of Onigiri
Onigiri, also known as Japanese rice balls, traces its origins back to ancient Japan, where it served as a portable and convenient food option for travelers, warriors, and farmers alike. The concept of onigiri likely emerged during the Nara period (710-794 AD) when people began to shape cooked rice into small, compact triangles or rounds, often wrapped in nori seaweed for preservation and added flavor.
