Sushi Pinwheels Recipes

Steps:

• For the prosciutto and mozzarella sushi: Place the bread slices on a work surface. Using a rolling pin, lightly roll the bread until 1/4-inch thick. Spread one side of each slice with 1 teaspoon of the mascarpone cheese and top with 1 slice of prosciutto. Trim the prosciutto to fit the bread using scissors. Spread each slice of prosciutto with 1 more teaspoon mascarpone cheese. Place 2 cheese sticks, end-to-end, along the narrow edge of the bread. Place 2 pickles, end-to-end, in front of the cheese. Place a carrot stick between the pickle and the cheese. Starting at the narrow end, roll up the bread like a jelly roll and press lightly to stick. Using a sharp knife, cut each roll into 3 pieces.
• For the turkey and cheddar sushi: Place the bread slices on a work surface. Using a rolling pin, roll the bread until 1/4-inch thick. Spread one side of each slice with 1 teaspoon of the mascarpone cheese and top with 1 slice of turkey. Trim the turkey to fit the bread using scissors. Spread each slice of turkey with 1 more teaspoon mascarpone cheese. Place 2 cheese sticks, end-to-end, along the narrow edge of the bread. Place a string bean on top of the cheese. Place a carrot stick alongside the string bean. Starting at the narrow end, roll up the bread like a jelly roll and press lightly to stick. Using a sharp knife, cut each roll into 3 pieces.
• Place the sushi on a platter and serve.

Steps:

• Mix the cream cheese, basil, chives, parsley, lemon juice, and sprinkle with salt and pepper together in a bowl. Lay out the tortillas and spread with the herb cream cheese mixture. Next, layer on the turkey, carrots and cucumber onto each tortilla. Like making sushi, roll the tortillas up tightly, then wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate, about 1 hour. When ready to serve, unwrap the sushi rolls and slice into quarters.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring 1 1/3 cups water to a boil. Add rice, and stir. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar ,and salt. Blend the mixture into the rice.
• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). On a medium baking sheet, heat nori in the preheated oven 1 to 2 minutes, until warm.
• Center one sheet nori on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands. Using your hands, spread a thin layer of rice on the sheet of nori, and press into a thin layer. Arrange 1/4 of the cucumber, ginger, avocado, and imitation crabmeat in a line down the center of the rice. Lift the end of the mat, and gently roll it over the ingredients, pressing gently. Roll it forward to make a complete roll. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
• Cut each roll into 4 to 6 slices using a wet, sharp knife.
