Cherry Blossom Rice Balls
Not only we can admire the flowers, but we can also preserve them to cherish the taste of the season like these Cherry Blossom Rice Balls.
Servings:
Ingredients
- 4 salt pickled cherry blossoms
- 1 cup hot water
- 2 cups steaming white rice
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- Rinse the cherry blossoms in hot water for 1 minute to remove the salt.
- Wet you hands slightly to keep the rice from sticking to your hands and sprinkle a little bit of salt to your palm.
- Let the steaming rice cool enough to handle. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of steaming rice to your hand and mold it with both hands into cylinders while it is still warm.
- Press the salted cherry blossom on top lightly until they stick together. Continue making rice balls with the rest of rice and serve.
