SUSHI SALAD



SUSHI SALAD image

Categories     Fish     Dinner

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup T canola oil
1 1b salmon fillet
2 t seasoned rice vinegar
1/2 t sesame oil
salt to taste
1 cup warm cooked brown rice
2T black sesame seeds
1T soy sauce
8 cups greens
1 avocado cut into cubes
1 orange
4 seaweed sheets cut into 1/2" squares (crunchy seaweed snacks, not nori sheets)

Steps:

  • In saute pan over moderate heat, warm 1T canola oil. Add salmon, cook 4 minutes on each side. Transfer to bowl and shred into 1" pieces. Combine 1/2 cup canola oil with vinegar, sesame oil, salt and whisk. Stir together cooked rice, sesame seeds, soy sauce. Add greens, avocado, salmon. Drizzle with salad dressing and a squeeze of the orange and sprinkle with seaweed pieces.

Tips:

  • For the best results, choose sushi-grade fish that is fresh and of high quality.
  • If you are using frozen fish, thaw it completely before using. Do not use microwave to speed up the thawing process as it could compromise the quality of the fish.
  • Rinse the rice thoroughly before cooking. This will help to remove the starch and prevent the rice from becoming gummy.
  • When cooking the rice, use a tight-fitting lid and do not stir the rice. This will help the rice to cook evenly.
  • Once the rice is cooked, let it cool slightly before mixing it with the sushi vinegar. This will help the rice to absorb the vinegar more evenly.
  • When assembling the sushi salad, use a variety of colors and textures. This will make the salad more visually appealing.
  • Do not overmix the salad. This will prevent the rice from becoming mushy.
  • Serve the sushi salad immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.

Conclusion:

Sushi salad is a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to get your daily dose of omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and fiber.
