Instructions
- Bring a small pot of water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, slice konjac into 1/2-inch thick strips. Optional: lightly score both sides of the konjac with a knife to help it better soak up the marinade.
- Once the water is bubbling vigorously, drop in the konjac pieces and boil for 1 minute, then drain and rinse with cold water.
- Mix the rest of the ingredients together in a small ziploc bag: 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1/4 sheet nori, 1/4 tsp sugar, and 5 drops of red food colouring (plus 10 drops of yellow food colouring if desired).
- Add the cooled konjac into the ziploc bag and mix well to coat all the pieces. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 16 hours and no longer than 36 hours (see Note 2).
- Rinse off excess marinade and pat the sashimi pieces dry before using.
Notes
- Food Colouring: Add the yellow food colouring if making “salmon” sashimi, as salmon has a more orange-red colour. Omit yellow food colouring to make “tuna” sashimi as tuna has a deeper red colour.
- Very important: do not marinate the konjac for more than 36 hours or else it will get mushy and begin to fall apart.
