Sushi Rice Salad

 

Recipe By :Robin Robertson

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : Rice

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 1/4 cups glutinous or sticky rice

4 1/2 cups water

1/2 tsp. salt

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

1 teaspoon sugar

2 tablespoons tamari soy sauce

1 teaspoon white miso paste

1 teaspoon mirin

1 cup fresh shiitake mushrooms -- stemmed, sliced

1 medium carrot -- cut into long shreds

1 cup fresh bean sprouts

1 cup snow peas -- trimmed

and cut into strips

2 tablespoons chopped scallions

1 teaspoon sesame oil

 

Soak the rice for 30 minutes, then drain. Place the rice and 3 1/2 cups of water

with 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a covered saucepan and simmer for 15 minutes. Allow

to rest for 5 minutes and then remove the rice to a shallow bowl. Set aside and

allow to cool at room temperature. In a small saucepan, heat the rice vinegar

with the sugar, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Drizzle the vinegar mixture over

the cooked rice. Combine 1 cup of water with the tamari, miso paste, and mirin

in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring to dissolve the miso. When water is

simmering, add the mushrooms and carrots and cook until softened, about 2

minutes. Add the bean sprouts and snow peas and cook about 1 minute longer, or

until snow peas turn a bright green. Add the scallions and sesame oil to the

vegetables and toss to coat. Remove from heat. Spoon rice into individual bowls

and top with the vegetables. Serve at room temperature.

NOTES : There are many ways to enjoy sushi rice without ever going near a piece

of fish, raw or otherwise. Two such preparations are refreshing rice salads

called chirashi-zushi and bara-zushi, which means Òscattered sushi.Ó This is my

own version of a sushi rice salad made with Japanese-style glutinous rice.
