ingredients
- 1 batch cooled to room temperature Sushi Rice
- 2 tablespoon (12 grams) Furikake Rice Seasoning
- 5 sheets Nori
- 1 sliced English Cucumber
- 2 sliced Avocados
- 2 sliced Carrots
- 10 ounces Imitation Crab
- serving soy sauce
- serving pickled ginger
- serving wasabi paste
Method
Step 1
1. Prep all of your ingredients. To make the rice, cook 1&1/2 cups of rice in 2 cups of water. Do not boil first. Once it reaches boiling point, cover and let simmer for 5 minutes or until rice is done. Remove from heat, and add 1/8 cup of rice vinegar to 1 teaspoon of sugar, mix and sprinkle over rice. Add seasoning and mix gentle with a fork.
Step 2
2. Lay a sheet of Nori on a sushi mat* smooth-side-down. Place ~1/2 cup of sushi rice over the nori. **Use water, this will help the rice not to stick. Spread the rice using a paddle or with your fingers, leaving a 1-inch border open at the top and gently but firmly press the rice onto the nori in an even layer. Rice should cover the Nori all the way to the bottom, and to the left and right edges of the sheet.
Step 3
3. Place the crab, cucumber, carrots and avocado side by side then roll the sushi by lifting and carefully folding it over the fillings until they are enclosed. Use the sushi mat to squeeze the roll in as tightly as possible (See Reel). Transfer the roll to a cutting board and cut the sushi into 6-8 pieces using a sharp knife. Repeat! Serve immediately, along with pickled ginger, wasabi paste, and soy sauce for dipping. Enjoy!
