HOW TO THROW A SUSHI PARTY RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a bowl wash the rice 3 times with water.
• In a pot add rice and water and cover and bring it to boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Then take off heat and rest for another 15 minutes.
• In a microwave safe bowl heat sugar, salt and vinegar for a minute or until the sugar is completely melted.
• Transfer the rice onto a serving bowl and pour the vinegar over the rice.
• Using a spatula fold in the vinegar and cut into the rice. Have another person fan the rice while mixing to get it down to room temperature.
• Prep the fix-ins. Slice tuna and chop until the meat is mashed together. Transfer into a small bowl.
• Mix in mayonnaise and sriracha sauce. Set aside
• In a medium bowl marinate chicken with your favorite teriyaki sauce. Fully cook chicken and slice and set aside in a bowl.
• Cut imitation crab into small pieces. Mix in mayonnaise until fully coated. Set aside.
• Cut veggies into thin slices. Cut avocado into bite size pieces as well.
• Set up the table: After placing your rice and fix-ins place each sushi rolling station with a bamboo rolling mat. Set out a bowl of water so the rice does not stick to your hands. Have a cutting board close by with a knife. Let's roll.
• On the rolling mat place one sheet of nori. There is a smooth side and a rough side. The rough side will face up.
• Wet your hands and grab a handful of rice and place it on your nori. Spread the rice evenly throughout the nori without smushing the rice down. LEAVE SPACE AT THE BOTTOM. (This extra sliver of nori will stick onto the rice when rolling.)
• Place the fix-in at the bottom row of the rice.
• Grabbing both nori and the mat roll the mat over so the extra space at the bottom touches the other side.
• Squeeze down to make a nice tight roll.
• Grab the mat and continue rolling over the rice until your roll is complete. Squeeze down along the way to keep the roll from holding its shape.
• Transfer your roll onto a cutting board. Have a damp towel close by for your knife. Before you cut give you knife a wipe.
• NOTE: This will prevent the rice from sticking to the knife.
• Cut your roll into desired sizes.
• NOTE: Wrap mat with plastic wrap for inside out rolls.
• Repeat steps 13-20 for your veggie roll.
• Repeat steps 13-20 for your teriyaki chicken roll.
• Repeat steps 13-20 for your California roll.
• Enjoy!

SUSHI PARTY

Steps:

• Bring water and rice to a boil in a large pot. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 25 minutes. Remove pot from heat and keep covered for 10 minutes.
• Stir 5 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar, sugar, and salt together in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave until vinegar mixture is warmed, 30 to 45 seconds. Stir well. Add vinegar mixture to rice and toss thoroughly to coat each grain of rice; cool completely.
• Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a small skillet over medium heat; cook eggs in hot oil until firm, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer eggs to a plate and cut into strips.
• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, sake, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, and sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat; fry eggplant in oil mixture until softened and lightly charred, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer eggplant to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Mix carrot, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce together in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave until carrot is softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Drain.
• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add asparagus and cook until bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and immediately immerse asparagus in ice water for several minutes to stop the cooking process. Drain.
• Cut avocado into 8 slices and drizzle lemon juice over slices in a bowl.
• Lay nori sheets on a flat work surface, wet hands, and spread 3/4 to 1 cup rice onto each sheet. Press rice into a thin layer, leaving 1/2-inch exposed nori on 1 long side.
• For California rolls, layer crabmeat, avocado, cucumber, and carrot atop one another in a thin strip along the edge opposite the uncovered edge on 3 nori sheets.
• For eggplant and avocado rolls, layer eggplant and avocado atop one another in a thin strip along the edge opposite the uncovered edge on 3 nori sheets.
• For pesto and egg rolls, spread pesto in a thin strip along the edge opposite the uncovered edge and top with egg slices on 3 nori sheets.
• For shrimp and asparagus rolls, layer shrimp and asparagus atop one another in a thin strip along the edge opposite the uncovered edge on 3 nori sheets.
• Transfer 1 prepared nori to a bamboo sushi mat. Use the mat to roll the nori and rice around the filling toward the exposed nori edge, squeezing gently. Wet the exposed nori edge and seal the roll. Slice each roll into 8 pieces. Repeat with remaining prepared nori.
