Nigiri

Method

Nigiri

  1. 1

    Prepare Sushi Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to the package instructions. Once cooked, transfer to a large bowl.

  2. 2

    Season the Rice

    In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar with a pinch of salt. Gradually pour the mixture over the warm sushi rice, folding gently to combine. Allow to cool at room temperature.

  3. 3

    Form Nigiri

    Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking. Take a small amount of sushi rice (about 1 oz) and mold it into an oval shape. Top each piece with a slice of tuna, salmon, white tuna, shrimp, and yellowtail.

Iron Chef Roll

  1. 4

    Prepare Shrimp

    Peel and devein the raw shrimp. Dip them in the panko breadcrumbs until fully coated.

  2. 5

    Fry the Shrimp

    Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Fry the panko-coated shrimp until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

  3. 6

    Assemble the Roll

    On a sushi mat, lay a sheet of nori (seaweed). Spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori. Place the fried panko shrimp and slices of white tuna in a line across the center. Roll tightly to form a cylinder.

  4. 7

    Add Toppings

    Slice the roll into 8 pieces. Drizzle with soy sauce, and sprinkle with masago and chopped green onion. Add a touch of sriracha and mayonnaise for extra flavor.
