Seven Colored Inari Sushi with Black Rice
This is an adaptation of inari sushi that were packed in a bento I got from a ryoutei (high-end Japanese restaurant). These are seven-color inari sushi featuring purple, sticky and beautiful black rice.
The seven colors are: Black rice (black and purple); shirasuboshi (white, boiled salted tiny sardines); carrots (orange); corn kernels (yellow); sesame seeds (gold); and edamame (green).
(Note: the number 7 is a lucky number in Japan)
Simmer the aburaage while the rice cooks.
The total cooking time is about 60 minutes.
It depends on how you pack the inari skins, but with 2 rice cooker cups worth of sushi rice there will be a bit left over. Leftover rice can be frozen.
Use commercial sushi vinegar if you prefer.
You can add gingko nuts, finely scrambled egg, or kinshi tamago (finely shredded thin omelette) instead of the corn kernels. For 10 inari sushi using 2 rice cooker cups of rice. Recipe by soyumina

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Rinse the rice, drain into a fine mesh sieve and leave for about 15 minutes. Put the rice in the bowl of a rice cooker with the carrot, black rice, ◎ sake and ◎ kombu, and cook with just a little less water than usual (about 2 mm lower than the regular rice setting).
- 2
Slice the aburaage into halves so each half makes a little pouch. ※Roll gently with a rolling pin (over plastic wrap) if they're difficult to open up.
- 3
Pour boiling water over the opened up aburaage to get rid of the surface oil. Simmer for about 20 minutes in the dashi stock, soy sauce an mirin, covered with a small lid sitting directly on the contents of the pan (otoshibuta).
- 4
When the aburaage is cooked and the sauce reduced, turn the heat off and leave to rest in the pan until cool.
- 5
The flavor of the simmered aburaage varies on the soy sauce you use, so adjust to taste.
- 6
Mix the ◆ ingredients together, or use bottled sushi vinegar. When the rice has finished cooking, take out the kombu and mix in the edamame and corn while still hot. Close the rice cooker after you've added these and leave it on the keep-warm setting for about 3 minutes.
- 7
Make the sushi rice: Turn the hot rice out into a bowl, Add the sushi vinegar (or the combined ◆ ingredients and mix in while fanning the rice. When the rice has cooled down a bit add the chirimen jako and sesame seeds.
- 8
Stuff the sushi rice attractively in the simmered aburaage pockets to finish.

Inari Sushi with Burdock Root Inari Sushi with Burdock Root
Inari sushi is delicious, isn't it? You can make them just with regular sushi rice but I prefer the texture of the burdock roots so I add a lot of them in.I shaved the burdock roots when I made this for first time, but it was a bit difficult to fit them in the aburaage tofu skins, so I chopped them up this time. It takes more time to cook when it's chopped rather than shaved, so simmer it slowly. Recipe by Pukuttopukumaru -
Flavorful Inari Sushi Flavorful Inari Sushi
I made this for my son who loves inari sushi. After trying out many different combinations and measurements of condiments, I finally compiled this recipe.You can use leftover broth to simmer carrots or hijiki to mix in with the rice. Or, you can season the rice with yukari (dried red perilla leaves) powder or salmon flakes. You can season the rice with almost anything and it will still be tasty. This makes slightly sweet inari sushi, so reduce the amount of sugar to your liking. For 12. Recipe by Mizuharun -

Inari Sushi with Nuts and Dried Fruits Inari Sushi with Nuts and Dried Fruits
I originally created this recipe as an entry for a recipe contest sponsored by the company that sells the nuts and dried fruits I used. However, the theme of the contest was rather extravagant and I didn't think this fit well, so I entered it in a healthy eating recipe contest sponsored by another company instead.I made these inari sushi with the rice showing so they would be fun to look at.I used the sweetness of the dried fruit only, and didn't add any sugar to the rice (as you usually would to sushi rice).They are good when they're freshly made, but they are also delicious if made ahead of time for a party. I personally like them better after they have rested for a while. Recipe by Mizuki shan -

Inari Sushi Inari Sushi
I consulted a recipe from Kikuchi Katsuhide, the head chef of "Shinoda Sushi" in Nihonbashi, Tokyo.This doesn't use dashi, but rather water for seasoning. When you think you want to have inari sushi, prepare this the day before! If you make a lot, you can store them in the freezer. It's also delicious in kitsune udon. The size of the aburaage will vary depending on where you get it, so please adjust the amounts of the ingredients accordingly. This is just how to prepare the aburaage, so fill them as you like. As the aburaage is rather sweet, I suggest something acidic for a delicious inari sushi. Recipe by kuisinbou
