Guest guest Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 Not exactly sure what you are talking about, but then it is early in the morning. Like 6 am. But rice ball sounds like you want a rice that holds together? What about using rice used for making sushi or sticky rice? Also called Glutinous rice, also called sticky rice, sweet rice, waxy rice, botan rice, mochi rice, and pearl rice. This is probably not much help, but then I am not sure what it is that you want...you sure don't have to fry it and it will hold together. linda - " Stephanie " <stargazerlily72 > Hello all, > I am wondering if anyone out there has a " tried and true " Vegan rice > ball recipe that is not fried?

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 Sorry, I am looking for rice balls that have a center of some type of vegetable (they usually contain meat or seafood). That is not held together with egg and can be baked, some call for deep frying, I think thats more of the Italian version? The Japanese version seems workable by just replacing the seafood with veggies...I was hoping someone had an actual recipe though...I'll probably just have to experiment.

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2007 Report Share Posted April 14, 2007 Hello all, I am wondering if anyone out there has a " tried and true " Vegan rice ball recipe that is not fried? I am looking for more of a Japanese style rather than the Italian. Thanks So much! Stephanie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephanie, Google " onigiri " or " vegetarian onigiri " and see what comes up. Onigiri are Japanese rice balls that have a filling, or can even be plain. They're made with sticky/sushi rice but they are NOT baked (or fried). The cooked rice just sticks together and that's about it! They're most often seen in a triangular shape but can be round or cylindrical. Sometimes they have nori wrapped around them, or are sprinkled with sesame seeds or furikake. Spicy tuna is a very common filling but you can put anything in them. -- Liz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 15, 2007 Report Share Posted April 15, 2007 Thanks for the link, that was a good one...I think I'm going to try chopping up some steamed broccoli and carrots, maybe some cauliflower for the filling...
