"CALIFORNIA ROLL" SALAD



Categories     Salad     Ginger     Rice     Vegetable     Side     Vegetarian     Horseradish     Carrot     Summer     Gourmet

Yield Serves 6 to 8 as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 cups long-grain rice
1/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons rice vinegar* (not seasoned)
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (preferably unhulled*)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons finely chopped pickled ginger*
4 scallions, cut lengthwise into thin 1-inch strips (about 3/4 cup)
1/2 cup finely shredded carrot
1 large seedless cucumber (about 1 pound), quartered lengthwise, cored, and
2 sheets nori (paper-thin sheets of dried seaweed)*
1 avocado (preferably California)
1/4 pound surimi (mock crab legs) if desired, sliced thin
For dressing
2 teaspoons wasabi (Japanese green horseradish) powder*
1 tablespoon hot water
2 tablespoons cold water
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons ginger juice (squeezed from freshly grated gingerroot)
*available at Asian markets, natural foods stores, and some supermarkets

Steps:

  • Into a large saucepan of salted boiling water stir rice and boil 10 minutes. Drain rice in a colander and rinse. Set colander over a kettle of boiling water (rice should not touch water) and steam rice, covered with a kitchen towel and lid, until fluffy and dry, 10 to 15 minutes (check water level in kettle occasionally, adding water if necessary).
  • While rice is steaming, in a small saucepan bring 1/4 cup vinegar to a boil with sugar and salt, stirring until sugar is dissolved, and remove from heat. In a dry small skillet toast sesame seeds over moderate heat, stirring, until golden and fragrant and transfer to a small bowl.
  • Transfer rice to a large bowl and stir in vinegar mixture. Cool rice and stir in sesame seeds, remaining 3 tablespoons vinegar, oil, ginger, scallions, carrot, and cucumber. Salad may be prepared up to this point 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring salad to room temperature before proceeding.
  • Dry-roast nori, 1 sheet at a time, directly above moderate heat (gas or electric burner), holding it at opposite corners and moving it back and forth, until it turns bright green, 30 seconds to 1 minute. With scissors cut nori into thin 2-inch-long strips.
  • Peel and pit avocado. Quarter avoado and cut crosswise into thin slices. Add avocado to salad with surmimi if using and two thirds of nori strips and toss well.
  • Make dressing:
  • In a small bowl stir wasabi powder into hot water and stir in cold water, soy sauce, and ginger juice.
  • Serve salad sprinkled with remaining nori strips and drizzled with dressing.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rice: Japanese short-grain rice is the best choice for sushi rice salad because it produces a sticky, chewy texture that holds the salad together well.
  • Cook the rice properly: Be sure to rinse the rice well before cooking to remove the starch. This will help prevent the rice from becoming gummy.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make your sushi rice salad taste its best.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are endless possibilities for variations on sushi rice salad. Try adding different vegetables, proteins, and sauces to create your own unique dish.

Conclusion:

Sushi rice salad is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover sushi rice. With so many different variations possible, there is sure to be a sushi rice salad recipe that everyone will enjoy.
