Salmon Temari Sushi Balls

I often make simple nigiri sushi. This time I had some leftover salmon, so I made some with it.

Use a small portion of sushi rice, so that they're easier to eat.
You can use other types of fish for the topping instead, but I think that salmon looks the nicest.
Don't forget to make a little hollow and fill it with a dab of wasabi, this will make the sushi look even more attractive. Recipe by Shurutui

Ingredients

2 servings
  1. 350 gramsUncooked white rice
  2. 5cm Kombu for dashi stock
  3. 175 gramsSalmon
  4. 20cm Plastic wrap
  5. Sushi Vinegar
  6. 1 tbspSugar
  7. 1 tspSalt
  8. 2 tbspVinegar

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Add a little kombu to the rice and cook in the rice cooker until firm. Slice the salmon into thin cuts, the same size as your average piece of sashimi.

  2. 2

    Combine the ingredients for the sushi vinegar. Remove the kombu from the cooked rice and transfer the cooked rice to a bowl. Stir the rice with cutting motions while pouring in the sushi vinegar.

  3. 3

    Lay out a piece of saran wrap and rest a piece of salmon on top. Shape a small amount of sushi rice into a ball and lay that on top of the salmon. Wrap the saran wrap around and shape into bite sized balls.

  4. 4

    Make a small indentation with your finger into the middle of the salmon. Take the sushi ball out of the saran wrap and dab a bit of wasabi to finish.
