Choxila 3 Pack Triangle & Rectangular Stainless Steel Sushi Mold Kit, Musubi Maker Press, Rice Ladle, Silver

My son is quite the cook, and loves to try new things. When he started exploring different foods, I knew he’d love this. He was happy to get them and used them to make his next four meals! He likes to perfect the technique. Very happy.

VERY EXPENSIVE FOR WHAT YOU GET.

These make great onigiri if you take the advice some give to always dip the mold in cold water between pressing onigiri. When wet with cold water, rice slips out really easily, and the whole process is fun. When dry, the rice sticks, and it quickly becomes a nightmarish experience. Dip it in cold water first, and it is fun. Don't dip, and you'll be really frustrated really fast. We just kept a bowl of cold water nearby and just plopped it in for a few seconds between filling it with rice. I do appreciate that it also can be dismantled and put in the dishwasher, but make sure that you keep track of the spring when you remove the presser from the outer shell.

Gets the job done - I find some of the cheaper silicone/plastic molds a little more convenient, but the stainless steel makes it easy to clean despite not being able to really clean between the top of the mold and the press the way it's designed, but I haven't looked into whether or not they come apart. Obvious durability, not worried about it breaking since it's steel, but I worry about the longevity of the springs compared to the cheaper molds.

Love how easy it is to use and clean and mainly it’s not PLASTIC! I use it with hot rice and don’t have to worry about microplastics
