Ingredients
- 2 cups Sushi rice
- 2.5 cups Water
- 3 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 8 ounces Ahi tuna, sushi grade
- 8 ounces Salmon, sushi grade
- 1 cup Edamame, shelled
- 1 large Cucumber, sliced

- 2 Nori sheets, cut into thin strips
- 4 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Wasabi paste
- 0.5 cup Pickled ginger

Instructions
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. Alternatively, combine in a pot, bring to a boil, cover, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes.
While the rice is cooking, mix together the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl until dissolved.
Transfer the cooked rice to a large bowl and gently fold in the vinegar mixture using a spatula. Let the seasoned rice cool to room temperature.
Slice the ahi tuna and salmon into thin pieces. Keep them cool until ready to assemble the bowls.
Prepare the other toppings: Boil the edamame in lightly salted water for 3-5 minutes, then drain and set aside. Slice the cucumber and avocado and cut the nori into strips.
Divide the sushi rice among four bowls. Arrange slices of ahi tuna, salmon, edamame, cucumber, and avocado on top of the rice.
Drizzle each bowl with soy sauce, and add a small dollop of wasabi paste to each side.
Top with pickled ginger, black sesame seeds, and a scattering of green onions.
Serve immediately and enjoy your vibrant, high-protein chirashi bowl.
