Sushi Sandwich Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, add the sugar, salt, and vinegar, and stir to combine. Microwave for 2 minutes, or until the sugar has dissolved.
• Transfer the rice onto a serving bowl and pour the vinegar mixture over the rice.
• Using a spatula fold in the vinegar into the rice. Have another person fan the rice while mixing to get it down to room temperature.
• Lay 4 sheets of nori onto two sheet pans. Spread half the rice mixture onto the nori on one sheet pan in an even layer. Repeat with the remaining sheet pan.
• Refrigerate uncovered for 30 minutes to an hour.
• In a bowl, whisk the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and egg until smooth.
• Slowly add the ice water in a steady stream whisking until just mixed.
• Dip the shrimp in the batter until fully coated.
• Heat a large pot of oil to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Add shrimp to the pot and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a wire rack to drain. Repeat with remaining shrimp.
• Once cool, season the shrimp with salt to taste.
• Remove the sheet pans with rice from the refrigerator. Place the first sheet of nori and rice onto a cutting board.
• Mentally divide the rice sheet into fourths. On one fourth, place a layer of cucumber, a layer of avocado, and top with the crab.
• On another fourth, place the sliced avocado and top with the shrimp tempura.
• On another fourth, spread a layer of the cream cheese, then top with smoked salmon and a layer of avocado.
• On the last fourth add a layer of cucumber and avocado.
• Gently invert the other sheet tray with rice onto the sheet tray with toppings, so that the edges are even.
• Cut the sushi into 16 even squares.
• Serve with teriyaki sauce, spicy mayonnaise, and soy sauce.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Cut a square of plastic wrap slightly larger than a nori sheet. Place the plastic wrap on the kitchen counter and place a nori sheet on top, shiny-side down, at a 45-degree angle to the plastic wrap, so it looks like a diamond shape on a square.
• Keep a small bowl of water to the side. Wet hands in the water bowl and place a large handful of rice in the center of the nori sheet. Using your hands, form the rice into an approximate 3 1/2-inch square. Season well with salt and repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets.
• Top the rice with avocado. For the tofu sandwich, place the tofu, carrot and cucumber on top of the avocado. Repeat to make 1 more tofu sandwich. For the spinach sandwich, place spinach, pickled red cabbage and red pepper on top of the avocado. Repeat to make 1 more spinach sandwich. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon black sesame seeds over the filling in each sandwich.
• To close the sandwiches, seal all four corners of the nori over the ingredients. Fold the right corner over the stack and dampen the folded-over corner using wet fingers. Fold the left corner on top of the damp right corner and press to seal the two corners together. Repeat with the top and bottom corners to seal the sandwich completely.
• To set your sandwiches, gather the plastic wrap over the sandwiches and place something heavy like a cutting board or a book on top of each. Allow each sandwich to sit for 5 to 10 minutes before unwrapping.

Steps:

• Cut the crusts off of each slice of bread and roll out as thin as possible with a rolling pin.
• Place the tuna, capers, mayonnaise and dijon mustard in a bowl and stir to combine.
• Place the long side of the rolled out bread closest to you.
• Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on each slice of rolled out bread.
• Thinly spread 1/3 of the tuna mixture onto half of the bread lengthwise.
• On top of the tuna mixture, arrange some of the cucumber sticks and grated carrot making sure not too over stuff the roll (a little goes a long way).
• Starting at the side closest to you (the filled end) tightly roll the tuna/cucumber/carrot mixture up and press to seal into a roll (I dab a bit of mayonnaise across the end of the roll to act as a glue sealing the roll).
• Cut the roll into 4 even pieces and repeat with remaining bread and tuna mixture.

Steps:

• Place 1 bread slice between 2 sheets of waxed paper; flatten with rolling pin to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut off and discard crust. Repeat with remaining bread slices.
• Spread bread slices with mayo; top with 2% Milk Singles and ham. Roll up, starting at one short side of each.
• Cut each into 4 slices.

Steps:

• Flatten bread slices with a rolling pin. Combine cream cheese and sour cream; spread mixture over slices. Lay 2 carrot and 2 cucumber matchsticks at the bottom of each slice -- let ends hang over edges. Roll up bread, pressing gently to seal, then cut each roll in four equal pieces.
