Here is a list of the basic ingredients we use when we make sushi.
Feel free to add other favorite vegetables/ingredients as your
tongue desires. Quantities are approximate for 8 hungry adults.
- 150 ml
Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp
Roasted sesame seeds, white
- 2 tsp
Roasted sesame seeds, black
(optional)
- 5 Green
onions
- 25 Yakisushi-Nori (toasted seaweed sheets), quartered
- 5
“cups” Sushi Rice (not just any white rice works)
- 2
Cucumbers
- 6 Avocados
- 1 Red
Bell Pepper
- 12
Baby Carrots
- 1 Can
of pre-cooked asparagus.
- 2 extra
firm water pack tofu tubs
Use a quality soy sauce, like Kikkoman. Don't use a store brand
or La Choy. A low sodium version is fine. We also use
Bragg's Liquid Aminos.
I have to import the roasted sesame seeds from Ohio of all places.
I'm sure there has to be a local source for these here in DFW,
but I haven't found it yet.
We prefer the YamaMotoYama brand yakisushi-nori.
