I tried this recipe several times with different amounts of soy sauce and sugar, and finally it came out just the way I like it.

When draining the aburaage, just squeeze them lightly between both hands. Recipe by Mi-go

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Roll a chopstick over the aburaage to make it easier to open them up into pockets.

  2. 2

    Boil the aburaage for 10 seconds to remove excess oil.

  3. 3

    Sandwich the aburaage between sheets of paper towels to drain off the excess water. Cut in half.

  4. 4

    Put the ingredients marked ● into a pot and bring to a boil. Add the aburaage and simmer over low heat for 5 minutes while pouring the broth over them.

  5. 5

    Turn off the heat and let cool. If you're going to make the sushi later, store the seasoned aburaage in the fridge together with the broth.

  6. 6

    To make the sushi vinegar: Put the ingredients marked ◆ into a heatproof bowl and microwave for 30 seconds at 500W. Mix to dissolve the sugar.

  7. 7

    To make the sushi rice: 1. Rinse the rice and cook in a rice cooker with water, sake and kombu.

  8. 8

    2. Transfer the steamed rice to a bowl. Add combined sushi vinegar, and mix briskly while fanning with a hand-held fan to cool.

  9. 9

    3. Cover the rice with a wrung out moistened kitchen towel. 4. Mix the sesame seeds to taste.

  10. 10

    Squeeze the aburaage lightly to remove the liquid. Stuff 35 g of the rice into each pocket. Tip: The mini-inari sushi in the front row of the photo have been cut in half again after being stuffed with rice.
