 Cookbook:Onigiri - Wikibooks, collection of open-content textbooks
Common fillings include umeboshi (Japanese pickled plum); katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes) moistened in soy sauce; cooked, salted salmon; salmon roe; and "seachicken" (canned tuna) with mayonnaise.
Katsuobushi: take a deciliter or so of the flakes, and pour a little soy sauce over it - it is very easy to pour too much, so be careful.
A creative variation is a yaki-onigiri in a bowl of dashi garnished with chopped leek and katsuobushi.
