- In a large saucepan, combine rice and water; let stand for 30 minutes. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until water is absorbed and rice is tender. Remove from the heat. Let stand, covered, for 10 minutes., Meanwhile, in small bowl, combine the vinegar, sugar and salt, stirring until sugar is dissolved., Transfer rice to a large shallow bowl; drizzle with vinegar mixture. With a wooden paddle or spoon, stir rice with a slicing motion to cool slightly. Cover with a damp cloth to keep moist. (Rice mixture may be made up to 6 hours ahead and stored at room temperature, covered with a damp towel. Do not refrigerate.), Place asparagus in a steamer basket; place in a large saucepan over 1 in. of water. Bring to a boil; cover and steam for 3-5 minutes or until crisp-tender., Place sushi mat on a work surface so mat rolls away from you; line with plastic wrap. Place 2/3 cup rice on plastic; with moistened fingers, press rice into an 8-in. square. Top with one nori sheet., Arrange a small amount of vegetables and avocado about 1-1/2 in. from bottom edge of nori sheet. Lifting bottom edge of the bamboo mat, roll up the rice mixture jelly-roll style, being sure to lift plastic from rice. Roll bamboo mat over sushi roll, pressing firmly, to make a more compact roll.

NORI ROLLS
Steps:
- In a deep, wide dish or pie plate, combine the soy sauce, honey, garlic and ginger. Add the tofu and let it marinate for at least an hour, turning it over half way through.
- Cook the rice according to the package. In a large glass or ceramic bowl, combine the rice vinegar and sugar. Add the hot rice in fourths, stirring the mixture well after each addition. Stir in the scallions and sesame seeds, mix well.
- For each roll, place a sheet of nori on a piece of wax paper so that the bottom edge of the nori lies along the bottom edge of the paper. Moisten your hands with cold water and place a handful of rice in the center of the nori, spread it out in a thin layer to fill the sheet evenly. Add more rice if necessary. Place 2 strips of tofu across the center of the nori, so they run the entire width of the sheet. Place a portion of the carrots on top of the tofu, some spinach over that, finishing with some sprouts (use about a fifth of each filling ingredient). Start rolling the nori from the bottom by gripping the nori and the wax paper, and using the paper to help you make a tight roll.
- Let the nori rest, seam side down, while you repeat the remaining procedure with the remaining rice and nori. You should have 5 rolls. To serve, wet the blade of a serrated knife and cut rolls into rounds about an inch thick. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:
- Cook the sushi rice according to the package instructions, then flavor with the seasoned rice vinegar, stirring to distribute. Let sit until ready to use.
- Preheat a grill pan on medium heat.
- Add the asparagus, peppers and shiitake mushrooms to a bowl, then toss with the olive oil. Season with 2 teaspoons soy sauce and a pinch of pepper. Grill the vegetables, turning as needed, until lightly charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove to a cutting board. Halve the asparagus, then set aside. Slice the peppers and mushrooms into thin strips.
- Present the grilled vegetables on a platter, along with the cabbage, carrot, cucumber and avocado, and allow everyone to build their own hand rolls.
- To make the hand rolls: Lay a halved nori sheet, shiny-side down, on a clean surface. Add 1/4 cup of the sushi rice to the left edge of the nori and flatten slightly. Top with the desired vegetables. Bring the bottom left corner up and over the fillings to the top edge of the rectangle, creating a cone. Now roll the cone down the remaining strip of nori. Use a couple grains of rice to secure the nori to itself to help keep it rolled. Drizzle the top with the sriracha mayonnaise and sprinkle over the sesame seeds. Serve alongside the ginger and soy sauce for dipping.
