thank you for posting that! I actually make sushi sometimes for shabbos, but it is SO labor intensive. it would be nice to have an alternative!

I had this a year and a half ago, and it is very good.

This looks great, I've never made sushi at home, but this looks much easier - and delicious!

Sprinkling toasted sesame seeds on top is nice as well.

Im looking at the recipe and thinking about how I really made it. I used 2 cups of rice, same amount of vegetables, except more scallions. more rice vinegar and soy sauce. I used more crab sticks. I now leave out the nori cause it just gets stuck in your teeth.

Do you put mayo in this salad?

Looks good but part of the enjoyment of sushi is eating the roll as one. It's like food art. We had sushi this past Friday night instead of gefilte fish. Definitely work but worth it!

I've made this a couple of times since you posted and it's always a hit!
BTW, I skip the fake crab and it's just as good.

Thanks cookielady!! Smile

Mmmmm...

I've made something similar, but served the ginger and soy sauce on the side. I make my "dressing" with my usual sushi rice dressing: rice vinegar, a little sugar, a little salt, and sherry, if you can find it. I make the sushi rice the way I normally would, and then just mix it into the salad with finely chopped nori and veggies.

I also made a wasabi/soy sauce/ginger dressing with sesame seeds and drizzled just before serving--it was a big hit with adults, but the kids prefer without or with just plain soy sauce.

It's great to see an actual recipe!

(And no mayo!!)

Has anyone tried this with a short grain brown rice? Im curious how it would turn out that way.

I made this for Shabbos lunch had some friends over that are vegetarians and it was a huge hit with everyone - I put the crab on the side so all could enjoy -made it all before Shabbos and just added the avocado before lunch... it was very good.

Thanks

Does minced ginger mean the spice that comes in a jar?

I mince up pickled ginger that comes in a jar. Its pinkish color.

That's what I used for this recipe. It's excellent, but I only cook brown rice so it's been a while since I've had the white rice to compare it to. We like it. Smile
