Philadelphia Sushi Roll recipe

This sushi recipe is suggestive of school lunch. It's a simple, no-frills recipe using cream cheese, smoked salmon, and rice. The smokiness of the salmon is similar to bacon, and combined with the sweet, comforting quality of cream cheese, this dish is perfect for those that swear they wouldn’t like sushi.

Ingredients:

8-ounce block cold cream cheese, cut into long, thin sticks
1 cup cooked sushi rice
4 ounces smoked salmon, thinly sliced
2 nori seaweed sheets
2 green onions

Directions:

  1. Place one sheet of nori seaweed on a bamboo rolling mat - make sure the shiny side is facing down. Cover the seaweed with prepared sushi rice (don't stuff too much on) - leave an inch of the seaweed bare at the top.

  2. Place ingredients length-ways in the centre of the rice.

  3. Roll the sushi into a log jelly-roll style. Slice into ¾-inch pieces and serve immediately.

We make this quite often but always use seasoned rice, as plain sushi rice is bland. If you don't want to season the rice, use a more flavorful rice like Jasmine and make it a little sticky.

Can you buy Eel Sauce at the Asian store?

This was nice. Make sure you just use plain sushi rice, as if you use a sushi rice recipe with added vinegar/sugar these tastes don't go well with the cream cheese.
