Why is an actress making rice-balls?
Sayuri has always wanted to introduce Japan's traditional techniques and culture to the world. While she cherishes the traditions of Japan she also wanted to create a fusion of traditional and modern food.
During the pandemic, Sayuri suffered many difficulties, sadness, and fear as personal events and world affairs to get worse day by day. Meanwhile, she has been cooking Japanese food everyday, and it was helped heal her mind. She realized how important it is to focus on “what we eat” in order to live a healthy life. One of the biggest motivations that started the rice-ball project was the change of her values and view of life from the hardships she faced.
In October 2020, Sayuri established the multi-purpose concept brand, OYAMADA Group LLC. In addition to that brand, she supervised and commercialized the OYAMADA ONIGIRI rice-ball.
