Seaweed Hand Rolls
Wrap your favorite filling in seaweed paper for a delicious meal. Classic small, green seaweed rolls are made on a Japanese bamboo sushi roller. Lay a piece of seaweed paper on the roller, spread sushi rice over the entire paper, fill with your favorite fillings, such as tuna, salmon, crab, avocado, cucumber or carrot and roll. Be creative. Moisten a sharp knife and cut into six to eight pieces. Enjoy with seaweed salad, a fresh dinner salad topped with ginger dressing or yakisoba noodles.
Soy Paper Hand Rolls
Soy paper's light, delicate texture is perfect for savory fillings. Lay a sheet of soy paper onto a Japanese sushi roller and fill with sweet and sour glazed lobster, rice and spring onions. Also, try filling with crab, avocado and spicy mayonnaise or cream cheese, salmon and cucumber for a Philly cream cheese-inspired roll. Roll the paper into the shape of a cone and enjoy with edamame or sashimi.
Sashimi
Sashimi is quick, easy and delicious paired with savory teriyaki style yakisoba noodles, fresh salads and hand rolls. Ball up a 2-inch pile of sticky, Japanese sushi rice and shape into a rectangle. Lay several rectangles on a tray, then lay salmon, butterflied shrimp, seared tuna, eel or lobster over the rice. Serve with soy sauce, lemon slices and wasabi. Remember to pour the soy sauce over the meat of the sashimi; dipping the rice will cause it to fall apart. Sashimi also makes a great appetizer for sushi dinner parties.
Japanes Salads
Japanese or Asian-infused salads are the perfect complement to hearty sushi and sashimi. Mix grated seaweed, mirin, a dash of sugar and sesame oil for a vinaigrette-style seaweed salad. Mince ginger and blend with mayonnaise, lemon juice and sesame oil for a ginger dressing to top house-style salads. You can even whip up a quick bean salad with fava beans, edamame and bean sprouts for a protein-inspired salad and top it with sesame seeds.
Japanese Noodles
Serving a warm dish with the cool flavor of sushi can round off and complete your Japanese-inspired meal. Yakisoba noodles are a fast, wok-fry noodle packed with vegetables for a vegetarian option or can include chicken and beef. Stir-fry your favorite vegetables, such as carrots, broccoli, bean sprouts and bell peppers. Toss in boiled soba noodles and fry for about three minutes. Fold in teriyaki sauce, chili paste and soy sauce, sesame oil and garlic or any other Asian flavor sauce, heat for a minute and enjoy.
