Sushi Style Crescent Crab Rolls Recipes

SPICY CRAB ROLL RECIPE

Steps:

• Rinse the rice and add to the rice cooker. Then add water and cook according to the instructions.
• Once cooked, transfer to a large bowl and let it cool. When it's still very warm, mix in the sushi vinegar (or the mixture of rice vinegar, sugar and salt).
• In a clear bowl, mix together Sriracha sauce and mayonnaise. Taste and add more Sriracha if you prefer a spicier flavor.
• Shred the imitation crab meat using your hands or two forks.
• Add Sriracha mayo and mix well.
• Cut the nori sheet into two halves with kitchen scissors.
• Place half of a nori sheet on top of the bamboo mat shiny side facing down.
• Spread seasoned sushi rice (about 3/4 cup) over nori evenly. Press the rice gently with your hands. (Tips: You can dip your hands in Tezu water to prevent the rice from sticking to your hands).
• Sprinkle sesame seeds on top of the rice.
• Flip the sheet and let the rice side facing down.
• Add the spicy Kani crab salad to the middle of the nori sheet.
• Place the thumbs underneath the bamboo mat and lift the edge up and over the filling.
• Roll the bamboo mat away from you and press the rice and filling together. Keep rolling until the ends meet.
• More the roll to a cutting board and cut it into 8 pieces.
• Drizzle more spicy mayo sauce on top of the roll for some extra heat.

CREAM CHEESE AND CRAB SUSHI ROLLS

Steps:

• Bring the rice and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir in rice vinegar and salt. Allow to cool completely.
• Lay out seaweed sheets. Moisten hands with water, then spread the rice evenly on each sheet, leaving a 1/2 inch gap along one edge, lengthwise. Arrange strips of cucumber, imitation crabmeat, and cream cheese in a straight line along the side opposite of the gap. Roll the sushi from the toppings to the exposed end of the the seaweed sheet.
• Using a sharp wet knife, slice each roll into 5 or 6 pieces. Serve with minced ginger on the side.
