Ingredients
- 2 cups short-grain sushi rice
- 2 1/2 cups water
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
+ 12 more ingredients
Instructions
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine rice and water in a pot, bring to a boil, reduce to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let steam for 10 minutes.
While the rice is hot, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Fold the vinegar mixture into the rice using a cutting motion with a wooden paddle, fanning the rice as you go to cool it and create a glossy sheen.
Make the tamago by heating a lightly oiled non-stick pan over medium-low heat. Pour a thin layer of egg mixture into the pan, cook until just set, then roll it up to one side. Add another thin layer and repeat until all egg is used. Slice the rolled omelet into thin strips.
Spread the seasoned sushi rice into four wide bowls, pressing gently to create a flat surface.
Arrange the sliced salmon, tuna, shrimp, tamago strips, cucumber, and avocado in an artful scattered pattern over the rice. There is no wrong way to arrange chirashi - the beauty is in the casual abundance.
Top with ikura, nori strips, and pickled ginger. Serve immediately with soy sauce and wasabi on the side.
