Sushi Rolls Using Aburaage
I make this occasionally when we get tired of the usual sushi.
You can make 20 inarizushi using the same amount of ingredients.
You can add black sesame seeds, shirasu, imitation crab sticks or your favorite fillings. Recipe by umemodoki

- 1
Place the aburaage 5 pieces at a time on a plate, and microwave (at 500 W) for 1 minute 20 seconds. The aburaage layers will separate and become less likely to rip.
- 2
Cut 3 open sides of each aburaage to make them into single sheets. This is easy if you use a pair of round-tipped scissors.
- 3
Blanch the opened up aburaage in boiling water to remove the oil on the surface. Put the ★ ingredients in a pan and bring to a boil, then add the aburaage. Use a pair of cooking chopsticks flipped around (so you are using the blunt ends).
- 4
Cover with a lid and bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat for 5 minutes, and leave to cool in the pan. The aburaage tastes the best if you cook them the night before and leave them overnight to soak up the flavors.
- 5
Rinse the rice, drain into a sieve and leave for 30 minutes. Add the konbu seaweed, and cook in a rice cooker using just a little less water than usual.
- 6
Make the sushi vinegar by combining the ● ingredients. Empty the cooked rice into a bowl, and fold in the sushi vinegar.
- 7
Mix the salmon flakes and finely julienned ginger into the rice. Place an opened up aburaage sheet on a sheet of plastic wrap. Leave a gap on the far side and spread the sheet with the sushi rice. Roll it up using the plastic wrap.
- 8
Leave the roll for a while with the seam side down to let it settle, then cut into 6 pieces.

Add whatever ingredients you desire. It will look nice and colorful if you consciously add red, yellow, and green ingredients. For 4 rolls. Recipe by Taunbi-

Sushi Rolls (To Use as Ehoumaki) Sushi Rolls (To Use as Ehoumaki)
I thought about making beef gyuudon for lunch, and had thawed out beef. However, I had eaten too much for breakfast and wouldn't be able to eat all of it, so I hurriedly decided to make beef rolls.Before when I finished rolling these up, the nori seaweed wouldn't hold together very well; however, this time I left the left edge of the seaweed rice-free, and piled up the left edge of the rice to about 1cm thick. Using this trick, I learned that you can wrap up the ingredients without slipping. For 2 people. Recipe by Yuuchikun -

Ginger Pork Sushi Rolls Ginger Pork Sushi Rolls
Ginger pork and rice go so well together, so I made a sushi roll with the combination.Make sure to wrap the sushi roll securely, and leave it for a while after it's rolled up so it settles down! Thinly sliced pork is easier to roll than pork cut for ginger pork. Recipe by Azumin25 -
Salmon and Avocado Fat Sushi Rolls (Futomaki) Salmon and Avocado Fat Sushi Rolls (Futomaki)
I love this combination in my futomaki.If you make the sushi vinegar in advance, the flavors blend together and become more tasty. If you cook the rice with a piece of kombu, you don't need to add the kombu based dashi stock to the sushi vinegar. Be careful not to drink the sushi vinegar by mistake when it's stored in the refrigerator! This happened once in our house, so ever since then I've written "Do Not Drink. Sushi Vinegar" on the label with a thick pen. For 6 fat sushi rolls. Recipe by Naopu -

Kumamoto Nankan-age Ginger Rice Sushi Rolls Kumamoto Nankan-age Ginger Rice Sushi Rolls
Nankan-age is a type of flat fried tofu or aburaage, that is a traditional food speciality from the town of Nankan in Kumamoto prefecture. Each piece of Nankan-age is big, about 30cm long. They keep well, and have a different texture from regular aburaage. I combined sushi rice flavored with homemade new harvest ginger pickled in sweet vinegar and fragrant roasted sesame seeds with sweet-salty simmered Nankan-age for a "aburaage sushi roll with a twist."By simmering the Nankan-age, it absorbs lots of dashi stock and the flavoring ingredients and improves in flavor and texture. I wrapped ginger and sesame-accented sushi rice with richly flavored Nankan-age. The fillings of asparagus, crab stick and tuna are minimally flavored, to feature the inherent umami of the ingredients themselves. Recipe by Marire-nu
