It provides great Food Design challenges to its young contestants.  Why couldn’t that be you?!

Now, your design challenge this week:

Create a tasty, attractive onigiri

Last week we practiced making onigiri, now I want you to create a design and then create an onigiri.

I want you to be creative, but remember the time frame you have and it must be something you’d actually eat.

I will provide the following ingredients (if you want to bring in other things, please do!)

Cooked rice

Nori (dried seaweed)

Variety of Fukikake and Goma

Variety of seasons from the pantry – please check if you’re not sure!

I can’t wait to see what you make!  Please bring your phone to document your final product.  If you put it on instagram, tag us: @cadesigntech

Remember, Grade 3 will be joining us as well as an introduction to their design unit of inquiry.
