Beautiful And Tasty “Sushi Cakes” Are Now Very Popular In Japan

1
Have you ever seen Japanese “Sushi Cakes” (originally they were called “Oshi-sushi”.)? They are very popular in Japan right now. They look great and people enjoy both making and eating them.

2
Nowaday, people use cake pans and a greater variety of ingredients. So we started calling them “Sushi Cakes”.

3
You may think it’s difficult to make, but actually it’s quite easy!

4
Use a cake pan or any other deep dish. Place plastic wrap on the inside of the pan.

5
Layer sushi rice and ingredients one by one in the pan. I think two or three layers are the best.

6
Cover the rice with plastic wrap and press firmly. Put a weight on the top so that the rice and ingredients will stick together.

7
After 10-30 minutes, remove the wrap from the top, cover the cake pan with a large plate and turn it over. Remove the cake pan and plastic wrap slowly.

8
Decorate with seafood, vegetables, or eggs, and enjoy!

9
You can use smoked salmon, cucumber, cooked egg, avocado, tuna..anything you like!
