Oshinko Roll
Make homemade Oshinko Roll in less than 15 minutes using just a few simple ingredients.
Ingredients
For the Sushi Rice
- 2 cups sushi rice cooked
- 1 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
For the Oshinko Roll
- 2 nori sheet cut in half
- 2 takuan pickled radish
- sesame seeds optional
Instructions
- Prepare Sushi Rice: Cook sushi rice following the package instructions or your preferred method. Once cooked, season the rice with a mixture of rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Gently fold the seasoning into the rice to evenly distribute the flavors.
- Prep the Ingredients: If the Takuan is in large pieces, slice them into thin strips. Cut the nori sheet in half.
- Lay Nori on the Mat: Place a sheet of nori, shiny side down, on top of the plastic-covered bamboo mat.
- Spread Sushi Rice: Wet your hands with water to prevent the rice from sticking to them. Take a handful of sushi rice and spread it evenly over the nori.
- Add Fillings: In the center of the rice, arrange the Takuan strips in a neat line across the rice.
- Roll the Sushi: Lift the bamboo mat from the bottom edge and start rolling it away from you, tucking the fillings in as you go. Use gentle pressure to create a firm and compact roll.
- Slice the Roll: Use a sharp, wet knife to cut the Oshinko Roll into bite-sized pieces. Wipe the knife clean between each cut to maintain clean edges.
- Serve: Arrange the Oshinko Roll pieces on a serving platter and top with sesame seeds (optional). Serve it with soy sauce, pickled ginger, and wasabi on the side for dipping.
