Guest guest Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Ooo kimchee would be delicious in sushi. Common Japanese pickled veggies used in sushi and onigiri rice balls are that pretty red pickled ginger and plums (umeboshi). I wonder if those pickled green beans or asparagus would be good in sushi? Amy, would you tell how you assemble & wrap the spring rolls? I've been wanting to try making those.

I haven't made spring rolls, maybe I misspoke. I make California rolls, and I roll them backwards from how you get them from the sushi market. I'm not talented enough to put the rice on the outside. I take the seaweed, put it on my bamboo rolling mat, put sushi rice on it (that recipe is in the files), add slivered avacado, carrot, cucumber, whatever is going in and roll it up. Then I wrap in cling wrap and chill for a few hours, and slice. I usually put the pickled ginger on the side because my kids don't like it yet. I'll have to look for the plums at my local market. I bet the beans or asparagus would be great in rolls too. One of my daughter's friend's neighbors made some awesome wraps once at a party we were at. I should track her down and get a lesson. I think my SIL has made spring rolls, I'll ask her about it. AmyF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 I don't care for the rice on the outside -- too sticky I have seen pickled plum paste in tubes, like readymade wasabi. It looks convenient but I haven't tried it yet. I love avocado in sushi Peace, Diane > > I haven't made spring rolls, maybe I misspoke.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 I love the 'sticky rice' in the veggie sushi. You can make it less gummy and starchy by either browning it first or if you prefer the white color, drain the rice while cooking and replace the water. Avocado is beautiful in veggie sushi as well as mashed olives,grated carrots, minced green onions including the tops, and green and red peppers. Minced cooked spinach and broccoli also works.

Guest guest Posted August 31, 2006 Report Share Posted August 31, 2006 I like the rice, I just like it on the inside of the roll. And then in the inside of my tummy Broccoli, great idea!
