Another visit to The Encyclopedia of Sushi Rolls, this time with simpler fare. We have real wasabi in powder form in the freezer where it seems to keep rather well. I found it intriguing to find a use for it as the star ingredient in a hosomaki (thin roll) so I had to give it a try.
The gari (pickled ginger) was to lift a sweet balance. I found it interesting for two sushi condiments taking centre stage for sushi, but I think I used too much or that real freshly-grated wasabi is milder.
Sweet Wasabi Sushi
Lunch ingredients: sweet wasabi hosomaki on rocket, edamame skewers, lemon slice, meat balls, red onion slices.
The rocket and onion were intended to be consumed together as a final salad to the meal.
