Ingredients

6 portions

Select all ingredients

250 grams smoked salmon
1 cup sushi rice, short grain
1 cup Water
1/2 cups rice vinegar
5 teaspoons sugar
cream cheeses, (the necessary)
ponzu soy sauces
plastic wrap
lemon juice, optional for cream cheese

Preparation

Put the rice in a large colander and wash with water until the water comes out clean. Repeat 1-2 times if necessary.

Put the rice with 1 cup of water and cover the pot over high heat until it boils. Let boil 2 minutes and lower the heat until the water is absorbed and the rice is soft (15 minutes approx.).

Remove the rice from the heat and let rest without uncapping for another 5 minutes.

In another pot, boil the sugar and rice vinegar over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.

Put the rice on an extended cookie sheet and flatten the surface.

Cover the rice with the vinegar and sugar and stir with a wooden spoon so that everything is covered.

Let the rice cool.

Cover the rice with a damp kitchen towel and allow it to cool completely.

Cut the salmon into 20 squares.

Cut egapack in 20 squares (big enough to wrap the rice balls). (See photo of how they are wrapped)

Put on each plastic paper a small square of salmon, then a little cream cheese (you can prepare it with lemon) and then a big spoonful of rice. Wrap (roll the egapack) and let it form a ball.

Repeat the previous step with all the salmon and keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Remove the salmon balls from the plastic and arrange in a dish. Serve with a prepared soy sauce or ponzu.

PRESENTATION

They leave 20 balls.
