How to cook

  • 1. [Preparation (Sushi rice)]
    (1) Cook rice until firm, and make white sushi rice with vinegar, sugar, and salt. For pink sushi rice, mix commercially available sushi powder. Cover with a wet dish towel until ready to use.
    (5 cups of white rice will yield approximately 1,600 g of rice = enough for 2 egg rolls and 1 norimaki roll.)

  • 2. [Preparation (omelet)]
    (1) Put all the ingredients in a bowl and stir well without whisking.
    (2) Heat a square egg cooker (square) thoroughly, blend in salad oil and wipe off excess oil with paper, pour in the egg mixture, cover with a lid over medium heat, and cook the four corners tightly. Insert two rape sticks into the pan, turn over, cook briefly, remove to paper and cool.

  • 3. [Preparation (Chakanpyo)]
    (1) Season the pre-boiled kanpyo in the juice of boiled seasonings. Cut the boiled kanpyo into 20 cm pieces and set aside. Cut the boiled kanpyo into 20 cm pieces.

  • 4. Cut the long side of 1 sheet of glue into 1 1/2 pieces and 1/6 into 3 pieces. Mix the chopped red ginger into the pink sushi rice.

  • 5. To make the tree trunks, place 3-4 pieces of chakanpyo on 1/2 of the nori and fold in half. (Thin the rings and make more at the base.)

  • 6. Place the omelet lengthwise on the maki-noren and spread 100 g of white sushi rice 9 cm wide in the center. Spread 1/3 of the pink sushi rice 4 cm wide on top of the white sushi rice and flatten the top. Top the pink sushi rice with 1 kanpyo (dried gourd) and 1/6 nori (dried laver).

  • 7. Place the napa in the center of the dish, divide 100 g of white sushi rice between the other side and the front (one side higher than the other), and place 1/3 of the pink sushi rice, a kanpyo, 1/6 nori, and white sushi rice on each side, in that order. Take a toothpick, place the tree trunk face down in the center of the bowl, and add white sushi rice on both sides. To make the rice rooted, add more kanpyo (dried gourd) and roll up the egg omelet.

  • 8. Cut each roll into 8 equal pieces, with the seam at the end of the roll facing down.
