    Line your oshibako (wooden mold) with a piece of plastic wrap or parchment paper. This will prevent the rice from sticking to the mold.

    Lay strips of eggs evenly over the rice layer. Then again spread an even layer of sushi rice.

    Close the ingredients with the plastic wrap then place the drop in wooden lid to compress the sushi ingredients all together.
