Bread
Sushi
After experimenting with Sushi for quite a bit, I figured, "Why
can't I do the same thing but with Bread?"
I've seen the larger sandwich wraps in restaurants, but I'm not
really a fan of very thick tortilla's nor all the doo dad's they put
in it, too much Lettuce, Onions and the like.
I wanted something that I could serve at a party, something light
and small, and non committal that the sandwich wraps are.

INGREDIENTS:




















A few slices of large White Bread, crusts removed
Whipped Cream Cheese
Butter (soft)
slices of Smoked Salmon
Capers
Rolling Pin


















These ingredients definetly compliment each other.
I rolled out the Bread very thin, spread a bit of soft Butter down
first, then some Creamed Cheese and then topped with a thin
slice of Smoked Salmon.


















I rolled up tight.




















I'm on a roll, a Bread Sushi Roll!!!




















I took all my rolls, wrapped up tight in plastic wrap and put in
freezer for about 15 min, not only "to set" but to get them really
cold, so when I slice them they wouldn't fall apart and unravel.
If you're not going to use them right away, you can first
refrigerate, and then about 15 min before you need them, then
put in freezer for 15 min.
After I sliced the Salmon Rolls, I garnished with Capers on top.
I figured I would take this a step further and
looked through my cabinets.
Here's what I did:















I found a can of Asparagus and only used the
really really soft spears. You can also steam or
boil fresh Asparagus for about 15 minutes until
soft, but use only the "spear" portion.
Come to think of it, you could use frozen
Asparagus, but just partially defrosted as I don't
know about refreezing defrosted Asparagus.
I needed something binding, so I choose
Cheese Spread.

Again, I rolled them up tight, and then wrapped
up tightly in plastic wrap and put in freezer for
about 15 min.
















Right before I was ready to serve them, I took
scissors to cut and a cup of cold water.
Just like slicing Sushi, it helps to dip the knife
(or in this case scissors) in cold water
inbetween cutting.
I topped the Salmon Bread Sushi with Capers
and the Asparagus ones with Black Olives and
Cherry Tomatoes, and of course toothpicks.
I saw this in an old old OLD cookbook I found in my garage
while cleaning it out so I thought I'd give it a whirl but make a
few changes.



















I found some Deviled Ham in my cabinets, and figured that
Cheese (Lorraine and spicey Jalepeno) might go good, as well
as Honey. For the binder I used some soft Butter, Mayo and
just a little bit of Creamed Cheese.
Again, I removed the crusts from Bread, but this time I used
both White and Honey Wheat Bread. I guess any kind of White
and then dark Bread can be used.



















On the dark slices I spread just a bit of Butter, Mayo, Cream
Cheese and then the Deviled Ham



















I alternated the Bread and spread Butter and drizzled some
Honey over the other slices. Then I topped with Cheese.



















So then I alternated the colors of the Bread. I would make the
bottom slice White, then add ingredients for the Deviled Ham
slice, and then the top slice with Wheat bread and added the
Honey part to that.
You have to keep track because you're going to want to stack
the
two different recipe slices on different colors of
bread.
Stack the White Bread slice on the Wheat Slice.
Wrap in plastic wrap, and freeze for 15 minutes.














When






When you cut them up, you will already have a Checkerboard
effect because you layered the two different color breads on
top of each other. After cutting up, you can change the
direction of the little bite sized pieces. Top with Olives and
Cherry Tomatoes. Serve along side your other (regular)
