SUSHI SALAD
Steps:
- In saute pan over moderate heat, warm 1T canola oil. Add salmon, cook 4 minutes on each side. Transfer to bowl and shred into 1" pieces. Combine 1/2 cup canola oil with vinegar, sesame oil, salt and whisk. Stir together cooked rice, sesame seeds, soy sauce. Add greens, avocado, salmon. Drizzle with salad dressing and a squeeze of the orange and sprinkle with seaweed pieces.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Rice: Use high-quality sushi rice like short-grain Japanese rice. It has a sticky texture that holds the salad together.
- Cook the Rice Perfectly: Rinse the rice well before cooking to remove the starch. Cook it according to the package instructions or use a rice cooker.
- Cool the Rice Properly: Once the rice is cooked, spread it out on a large plate or baking sheet to cool quickly. This will prevent it from becoming mushy.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the salad will taste. Choose ripe avocados, crisp cucumbers, and flavorful seaweed.
- Season the Rice Properly: Use a mixture of rice vinegar, sugar, and salt to season the rice. The vinegar gives it a slightly tangy flavor, while the sugar and salt balance out the flavors.
- Don't Overmix the Salad: Mix the ingredients gently to avoid breaking up the rice. You want the salad to be light and fluffy.
- Serve the Salad Immediately: Sushi salad is best enjoyed fresh. Serve it immediately after assembling, or store it in the refrigerator for no more than a few hours.
Conclusion:
Sushi salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover sushi rice. With its vibrant colors and flavors, sushi salad is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful meal, give sushi salad a try!
