SUSHI SANDWICH

Convenient way to satisfy a sushi craving. I invented this delectable open-faced "sandwich" while trying to use up leftover ingredients in a creative way. I made this with canned salmon (reminiscent of a Philadelphia roll) but I'm assuming tuna will work well also.

SANDWICH SUSHI

Offer the kids an unexpected twist on an after-school snack of raw vegetables -- wrap them up in bread to look like sushi.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Appetizers

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 slices white or whole-wheat sandwich bread
3 tablespoons cream cheese
1 1/2 tablespoons sour cream
4 carrot matchsticks (each 6 inches long)
4 cucumber matchsticks (each 6 inches long)

Steps:

  • Flatten bread slices with a rolling pin. Combine cream cheese and sour cream; spread mixture over slices. Lay 2 carrot and 2 cucumber matchsticks at the bottom of each slice -- let ends hang over edges. Roll up bread, pressing gently to seal, then cut each roll in four equal pieces.

Tips for Making Sandwich Sushi:

  • Choose the right bread: Use a sturdy bread that will hold up well when rolled, such as a baguette, ciabatta, or focaccia. Avoid using soft breads like sandwich bread or white bread.
  • Cut the bread into even slices: This will help ensure that the sushi rolls are uniform in size and shape.
  • Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise or cream cheese on the bread: This will help bind the ingredients together and prevent them from falling apart.
  • Add your favorite fillings: Be creative with your fillings! You can use anything from deli meats and cheeses to vegetables, fruits, or even cooked proteins.
  • Roll the bread up tightly: Use a bamboo rolling mat to help you roll the bread up tightly. If the roll is too loose, it will fall apart when you slice it.
  • Chill the rolls before slicing: This will help them hold their shape better. You can chill the rolls for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Slice the rolls into even pieces: Use a sharp knife to slice the rolls into even pieces. Wipe the knife clean between each slice to prevent the rolls from sticking together.
  • Serve the sushi rolls with your favorite dipping sauce: Soy sauce, wasabi, and ginger are all popular choices.

Conclusion:

Sandwich sushi is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or a snack. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences. With a little creativity, you can create endless variations of sandwich sushi that will impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy your favorite sandwich ingredients, give sandwich sushi a try!
