How to make Sushi with smoked salmon:
- The secret to good sushi is the rice. So before preparing it, you must wash the rice very well and leave it to soak for about 4 hours. After this time, cook the rice in the traditional way, with the water and when it is ready add the rice vinegar and mix until it is well integrated. Then let the rice rest in a large bowl to cool completely.
- If you have any doubts about this step, you can review the sushi rice recipe.
- Spread out on a flat surface, the wooden or silicone mat to make sushi and place a good portion of rice in the center. Moisten your fingers and spread the rice all over the sheet, leaving about an inch or so of space so you can seal the sushi roll well later.
- Trick: Remember that the rice must be completely cold.
- Next, cut the avocado, cucumber, and smoked salmon into thin strips. If you have fresh salmon you can follow the smoked salmon recipe and do it at home.
- To make the sushi with smoked salmon, start by spreading a little wasabi over the entire surface of the rice and place the strips of salmon, avocado and cucumber on top. You can combine it to taste or always place all the ingredients. Place these ingredients about 1 inch from the bottom of the foil.
- Tip: You can add strips of cream cheese if you want, the combination is delicious.
- To close the roll, slightly moisten the upper part of the seaweed, the one without rice, and roll from top to bottom, pressing down with the mat. The roll must be very tight and must be ready in three steps.
- When you are going to serve the sushi with smoked salmon, make sure you have a very sharp knife and cut the roll into eight pieces.
