People think Sushi and go EWWWW raw fish
But that is not so.
Sushi Rolls can be made out of anything really.
For example, COOKED Fish or even Vegetables!!!
Sushi Rolls are rolled up in Nori, aka Seaweed sheets. These
Seaweed sheets are properly processed now. It is sometimes
called Maki Rolls.
In a Maki Roll, the Seaweed sheet is on the outside, with the
Sushi Rice and other ingredients on the inside.
In a Uramaki Roll, the Rice is on the outside of the roll.
Sushi can be rolled up in just about anything, like my BREAD
SUSHI for example.
First you are going to start with Sushi Rice, only use Sushi
Rice. Most package directions say to rinse and let stand for
about 1/2 hour.
Boil according to package directions, then put into a bowl. I
like to add a dash of Rice Wine Vinegar to this and carefully
stir in. Then I let it cool for about an hour.
Sushi rolls can be stuffed with just about anything. Here I used
Nova smoked Salmon, Imitation Crab Meat, and a variety of
Vegetables like Tomatoes, Avacado's and Green Onions. A
standard stuffing usually includes strips of Celery and Carrots,
as well as Cream Cheese.
Of course you will need a package of Nori (seaweed) sheets,
and to compliment the finished product some Ginger as well
as Wasabi.
Ginger can be found already peeled and packed in water in a
small jar in most grocery stores. If you can't find it, you can
buy fresh Ginger (which looks like a tree branch), then
carefully peel off the outer bark layer, and slice off with a
potato peeler the inner part. It is pink.
Wasabi is very hot and spicey and green. It is made from
Chinese Horseradish. You can buy this packaged ready to go,
or what I do is buy the instant Wasabi and then I only have to
add a dab of water and stir it up.
You're going to want to slice the Celery into thin strips, and
peel some Carrots into thin strips.
