Sushi Recipes - Inside-out Salmon Sushi Rolls

Ingredients

• 2 sheets nori, toasted

• 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds

• 1 Japanese cucumber, thinly sliced

• 3 tablespoons Pickled Ginger

Method:

1. Using scissors, cut the nori into very thin, long strips. Cover a bamboo mat with a sheet of plastic wrap. Place 3 pieces of the smoked salmon on the mat, then spread 1 cup of the Sushi Rice evenly over it. Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds. 

2. Cover the rice with a second sheet of plastic wrap. Slide one hand under the bottom plastic sheet and place the other hand over the top plastic sheet. Turn the salmon and Sushi Rice sheet over so that the rice covered with sesame seeds is underneath, facing the mat. Remove the plastic wrap from the salmon.

3. Layer the prepared nori, cucumber and Pickled Gin­ger down the center of the salmon.

4. Lift the front of the mat together with the plastic wrap and roll up the sushi, applying even pressure. When the front of the mat is 2 cm (3/4 in) from the end of the sushi, lift the mat and plastic wrap away from the sushi. Continue rolling to complete the sushi roll.

5. Cut each roll into 8 equal slices and serve with soy sauce.
