Spicy Tuna Onigiri

• 4 sheets nori
• 2 c cooked short grain sushi rice
• 1 can Wild Planet Albacore Tuna
• 2 tbsp Kewpie Mayo
• 1 tbsp sriracha
• 1 tsp rice vinegar
• ¼ c thinly sliced scallions
• Black Sesame seeds

Prepare the spicy tuna mixture by combining the Wild Planet Albacore Tuna, Kewpie Mayo, sriracha and rice vinegar in a medium bowl and mix with a fork. Add scallions, reserving about 1 tbsp for a garnish. Mix until evenly combined.

Place about ½ cooked sushi rice in your hand and flatten slightly to create an oval and press a shallow trough down running along the center. Place about a tbsp of the spicy tuna mixture into the trough and gently press the rice up and around it. With care, gently form the rice into a thick triangle, keeping the grains together but not firmly packed. TIP: Dip your hands into fresh water to keep the rice from sticking to your skin.

Place the triangle base crosswise on a half sheet of nori and sprinkle with black sesame seeds. Fold the nori up both sides of the triangle. Garnish with an extra pinch of the spicy tuna mixture and a little scallion. Enjoy immediately before the nori gets soggy.
