- Rinse the white rice thoroughly before cooking to remove excess starch, ensuring a better texture for the rice balls.
- If you prefer a richer flavor, use short-grain sushi rice instead of regular white rice.
- To make the rice balls, wet your hands with water to prevent the rice from sticking to your fingers.
- Consider using a rice mold to create uniformly shaped rice balls with ease.
- Adjust the spice mix according to your preference to add more or less heat and flavor.
- For added texture, toast the sesame seeds lightly in a dry pan before adding them to the rice balls.
- Use ripe but firm avocados to ensure they hold their shape when incorporated into the rice balls.
- Experiment with other fillings such as cucumber, pickled vegetables, or shredded carrots for added variety.
- Pack the bento box with other complementary items like cherry tomatoes, edamame, or sliced fruit for a balanced meal.
With simple ingredients and just a few steps, you've created a delicious Avocado and Sesame Rice Balls. This meal is not only visually appealing but also packed with nutrients and flavors that are sure to impress. Enjoy your homemade bento box, whether you're at work, school, or picnicking in the park!
