Sushi Bake
Description
Sushi Bake starts with cooked sushi rice flavored with a mixture of rice vinegar, salt, and sugar to mimic sushi rice seasoning. The rice is pressed into the bottom of a baking dish and sprinkled with furikake seasoning, a Japanese rice seasoning blend that adds umami and texture.
The crab mixture is made by finely shredding imitation crab and combining it with sriracha, wasabi, cream cheese, chopped green onions, and Kewpie mayonnaise, which gives the topping a creamy, spicy kick. This mixture is spread evenly over the rice and sprinkled with more furikake before broiling.
Broiling warms the dish through and lightly browns the topping for a rich flavor. It is served with seaweed snacks to wrap scoops of the bake, creating a handheld bite akin to sushi tacos. Soy sauce can be added for saltiness and depth. This dish provides a rich, creamy texture balanced by the slightly tangy sushi rice and crunchy seaweed.
