JASWDC is proud to support TABLE FOR TWO’s World Food Day 2020 “Change the World with Onigiri – #OnigiriAction –”. During the class, you will learn how to make traditional onigiri (rice balls) as well as gochiso onigiri (gourmet onigiri) that use ingredients such as seaweed and eggs and tuna, and support TABLE FOR TWO’s Onigiri Action. Participants will be able to help donate school meals to children in need in DC and around the world by just taking a photo with their onigiri (rice balls) and post on the campaign website or your own social media with #OnigiriAction. For each onigiri photo post, TFT’s partner organizations will donate 5 school meals to children in need. 

Check the ingredients list before registering.  Once registered you will receive a confirmation email with the Zoom link. We will send the recipe card a week before the class.
