Ingredients
Instructions
-
Start by cooking the sushi rice according to the package instructions. Once cooked, let it cool to room temperature.
-
In a small bowl, mix together rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Gently fold this mixture into the cooked rice to season it. Set aside.
-
Prepare your veggies by slicing them into thin strips. You can also marinate tofu or tempeh in soy sauce for extra flavor.
-
Lay a sheet of nori on a bamboo sushi mat or a clean kitchen towel. With wet hands, spread a thin layer of sushi rice evenly over the nori, leaving a small border at the top.
-
Arrange your veggies and tofu/tempeh in a line across the rice, about one-third up from the bottom of the nori sheet.
-
Using the bamboo mat or kitchen towel, roll the sushi tightly from the bottom, applying gentle pressure to shape it into a neat roll. Seal the edge by wetting it slightly with water.
-
With a sharp knife, slice the roll into bite-sized pieces. Wipe the knife clean between cuts for a clean finish.
-
Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients until you have a variety of sushi rolls.
-
Serve your Vegan Sushi Night with soy sauce for dipping and, if desired, wasabi and pickled ginger on the side.
