Make Your Own Sushi at Home

Craving sushi? No need to go out; no matter how complicated it seems, and even though we're used to going to a restaurant when we crave this Japanese specialty, we assure you that you can prepare it at home. Today we present five different homemade sushi recipes that will show you that you can enjoy it in the comfort of your own home.   California Sushi You may have seen this specialty in various Japanese restaurants. It is a delicious roll filled with crab, cucumber, avocado, and topped with rice and masago, or fish roe. It’s a pretty fresh and light sushi that you can make at home, either with crab or with a bit of surimi if you prefer to save. Serve it with wasabi, soy sauce, and a bit of ginger. California Salmon Roll This recipe is a variation of the previous one as it uses fresh salmon instead of crab, but it also has a couple of interesting details like toasted sesame that adds a different dimension of flavor. Remember that when making sushi, you should keep your hands wet so the rice and seaweed don’t stick when you are rolling. Bowl Sushi with Tuna Sushi bowls, known in Japan as chirashi-zushi, are simply dishes that contain sushi rice with vegetables and the fish or seafood of your choice. This recipe not only includes fresh tuna but you can also add some salmon if you like. It also has sesame, wasabi, and seaweed to complete this unusual but delicious sushi. Vegetable Tempura When you go for sushi, it’s not just about the rolls; you also crave rice and skewers. That’s why we also present this delicious and crispy shrimp tempura recipe. They are delightful, and if you accompany them with a sweet and sour sauce, you will feel like you’re in your favorite Japanese restaurant. Try to serve them as soon as they are ready so they don’t lose their texture.   Green Tea Ice Cream And to finish, a very delicious and traditional dessert from Japanese restaurants. It is extremely light, aromatic, refreshing, and very easy to make at home. You need just six ingredients and half an hour to complete this sweet ending for the Japanese meal that your whole family will enjoy. For a sweeter touch, add a drizzle of honey to each bowl of ice cream.
