STEVE'S OFTEN COPIED, NEVER DUPLICATED, FURIKAKE CHEX MIX

GOLDEN FRIED RICE WITH SALMON AND FURIKAKE

Steps:

• Separate egg yolks from whites, placing yolks in a medium bowl and whites in a small bowl. Add rice to bowl with yolks and mix to break up any clumps and coat each grain with yolks (take your time with this as any clumps will cook together); set aside. Stir 2 Tbsp. oil into egg whites and season lightly with salt.
• Heat a dry large nonstick skillet over high. Add egg white mixture and cook, pushing around constantly with chopsticks or a heatproof rubber spatula, until gently set, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out skillet if needed.
• Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in same skillet over medium-high. Season fish with salt and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown underneath, about 2 minutes. Turn and cook just until lightly browned on the other side and opaque throughout, about 1 minute. Transfer to another plate. Wipe out skillet.
• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in skillet over medium-high. Cook ginger, stirring, until very fragrant, about 20 seconds. Add onion and season with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until onion is translucent, about 1 minute (remove from heat if onion starts to go past golden brown). Add reserved rice mixture, sprinkle with sugar, and season with salt. Toss to combine, then cook, undisturbed, until rice is beginning to warm and crisp underneath, about 1 minute. Push some of the rice to the side to clear a few inches in skillet. Drizzle a bit of oil into the clearing. Add scallion white and pale green parts and garlic and cook, stirring, until just softened and fragrant, about 45 seconds. Toss into rice mixture and cook, tossing occasionally, until warmed through and rice is crisp and chewy, about 3 minutes. Return cooked egg whites to pan and cook, tossing and breaking up with spatula until distributed. Return salmon to pan and toss once to combine.
• Divide among plates and top with furikake and scallion greens.

• In a sauce pan, heat butter, corn syrup, vegetable oil, soy sauce and sugar, until the sugar dissolves. Let cool.

FURIKAKE SEAWEED SNACKS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F and place racks in the upper-middle and lower-middle positions. Have two half sheet pans ready.
• Combine half of the white and black sesame seeds with the bonito flakes, sugar, wasabi powder, togarashi, and salt in a spice grinder. Pulse until coarsely ground, about three pulses. Transfer the seasoning mix to a small bowl and mix in the remaining white and black sesame seeds.
• Place a sheet of nori on a cutting board and, using a pastry brush, lightly moisten with the water. Immediately sprinkle 1 teaspoon of the seasoning mix evenly over the nori. It may start to curl up on the edges; that's okay. Using a large chef's knife, slice each sheet into 6 even rectangles and transfer to the half sheet pan. Repeat with the remaining nori sheets, dividing them evenly between the two pans. Leave at room temperature for 30 minutes to dry. (You will have extra seasoning; save for another use, like...popcorn.)
• Add sesame oil to a spritzer and evenly spritz the seasoned side of the nori sheets (You will have extra oil). Transfer to the oven and bake for 5 minutes. Rotate the pans and continue to bake until the snacks are crisp but not yet brown, about 3 more minutes.
• Transfer the nori sheets to a wire rack to cool. To store, transfer to a gallon-size zip-top bag and add the desiccant packet from the nori packaging to help maintain crispness. The seaweed snacks will keep for at least 1 week at room temperature.
