If the rice is too hot, it will melt the mayonnaise in here. So make sure it's lukewarm. And you need some nori seaweed. Like this. And let's cut it into three. Nori seaweed has front side and back side. Shiny side and rough side. And you always put onigiri on the rough side of the nori seaweed. So the shiny side goes outside of your onigiri. So it looks prettier. Prepare a bowl of water to keep your hands wet. Wet your hands using this bowl of water. To the palm completely like this, but not too soggy. And take about this amount of salt. Rub it all over your hand. Then take about this amount of rice, handful. Make a little dent in the middle. Put this tuna mayo onigiri filling. Wrap it up using this rice. And try to form triangle shape. Don't squeeze it too tight. About this size, triangle shape. The thickness. Then put it on this nori seaweed. Wrap both sides down. Tuck the bottom in.
