These were super fun to make!! I was worried that they’d fall apart like everyone had mentioned but i did let the rice soak in cold water for a few minutes before letting it cook through and that seemed to do the trick! they’re so yummy and cute!🍙

I didn't have the special seasoning. However, despite the questions and doubt from my family, the finished product was eaten up with pleasant comments. I used turkey spam and a little toasted sesame

Really good, I added around 1tsp of honey and 1 1/2 tsp of oyster sauce to the rice.

Didnt quite use the full recipe this time, but I absolutely love this recipe! Made it without the spam, as I didn't have any, but the sweet soy sauce mix to brush on goes GREAT both as the recipe calls for, and if brushed on bit extra on while eating~
