Tips
You can either lay out all the ingredients and have your guests roll
them or you can prepare them and slice them in 1 inch pieces.
If
you aren't familiar with Wasabe it is HOT! It comes
in a tube for easy use, or in dry powder. (Watch ingredients though...
I have seen some Wasabe paste made with Lactose!)
If
you can't find vegan Wasabe, just use regular dry mustard
powder, and add enough water to form a paste.... It is very
hot too!
Just
a small dab will seal the roll.
NOTES:
Seaweed
is found usually in the oriental sections of super markets. They come
in flat packs, about the size of a piece of paper.
Be
sure and put extra Wasabe or mustard paste on the
table for people to use at their own risk.
It
turns into a fun part of the gathering just
watching people put too much Wasabe on their sushi roll!
I
make these all the time for a quick lunch for myself...
For
more Traditional sushi roll: Sprinkle rice with a
little rice wine vinegar and mix well. A couple teaspoons per cup of
rice is suffice.
