Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Sushi rice
- 1.25 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 4 ounces Salmon (sushi-grade)
- 1 tablespoon Gluten-free tamari sauce
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Sriracha
- 0.5 Cucumber, julienned
- 0.5 Avocado, thinly sliced
- 2 Nori sheets (gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
Instructions
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rinsed rice and 1.25 cups of water in a pot. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit for 10 minutes, covered.
In a small saucepan, heat the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt over low heat until the sugar dissolves. Let it cool slightly, then mix it into the cooked rice. Spread the rice onto a large plate or baking sheet to cool to room temperature.
Slice the sushi-grade salmon into small, thin strips. In a small bowl, mix the gluten-free tamari sauce, mayonnaise, and sriracha to create the spicy salmon mixture.
Lay a sheet of gluten-free nori, shiny side down, on a bamboo sushi mat covered with plastic wrap. Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking and spread a thin, even layer of rice on the nori, leaving about a 1-inch border at the top edge.
Sprinkle a few sesame seeds across the rice. Arrange the spicy salmon mixture, julienned cucumber, and avocado slices in a horizontal line across the center of the rice.
Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, pressing gently to form a tight roll. Seal the edge with a little water.
Use a sharp knife to slice the roll into 6-8 even pieces, wiping the blade with a damp cloth between cuts.
Serve the gluten-free spicy salmon sushi roll immediately with additional gluten-free tamari sauce for dipping, if desired.
