Temari Sushi (Bite-sized Sushi Balls) step by step
- Prepare the sushi rice. I used a 25 cm square container for a gift box. A lid can be made with plastic wrap and eggs..
- Place cucumber on a chopping board and peel. Then slice the cucumbers with a peeler to use as the bows..
- Soak the the sliced cucumbers in water to make them crisp..
- The peeled cucumber skin can be also used for temari decorations. I folded over the skin, which had been salted and submerged in water, to make a square knot..
- Prepare the usuyaki tamago. Use 6 large eggs to make 14 thin omelets in a 24 cm frying pan..
- Cut the edges of the omelets into a square. The excess can be used for tamago 'gunkan' (battleship, as shown in the pictures below wrapping around the sushi balls) or thinly sliced omelets for the temari balls..
- Ex.1 Tamago gunkan: Make four 3 cm wide 12-15 cm long strips and wrap sushi rolls. Top with salmon roe and decorate with Step 4..
- Ex. 2 Gunkan: Cut the nori into 3 cm wide 12-15 cm long strips and wrap sushi rice. Spread Japanese mustard mayonnaise and place a thinly sliced omelet and imitation crab sticks..
- Main temari sushi balls. Slice sashimi in desired size. The temari sushi rice balls can be as big as 2 cm..
- Lay out the circular sushi rice, followed by the toppings in plastic wrap. Squeeze tightly into a ball (leave them wrapped)..
- Ex. 3 Use three pieces of tuna and cover the entire rice to make tuna temari..
- Ex. 4 Combine two ama-ebi shrimp into a U shape with the tails up on rice to make ama-ebi temari..
- Ex. 5 Cover a portion of sushi rice with one shiso leaf and place 4 pieces of squid in a crisscross pattern on top to make squid shiso leaf temari..
- Ex. 6 Sprinkle toasted sesame over sushi rice, and place two small pieces of salmon on top to make salmon temari..
- Ex. 7 Place one piece of greater amberjack (kanpachi) on temari to make kanpachi temari..
- Ex. 8 Wrap sliced cucumber around sushi rice as a gunkan roll (seen in pictures) and lay a salmon slice crosswise to make salmon cucumber temari..
- After making temari sushi balls as desired, lay the container with a usuyaki tamago omelet to place the sushi balls on top. When all are in place, cover tightly with plastic wrap and put the lid on..
- Cover the container with 4 omelets and cut the excess with scissors so they fit in the container. When preparing ahead of time, cover the plastic wrap over the eggs..
- Lay the sliced cucumbers crosswise, so that the edges are 3-4 cm longer than the container height and drape over the side..
- For a bow, drain Step 3. Fold one slice twice and secure one folded slice after another crisscross on a toothpick..
- Once folding is finished, place the folded slices on top so that the toothpick is invisible. Adjust the cucumber slices to make the bow look pretty. Done!.
- When placing on a table, tuck in the edges of the cucumber slices between the bottom of the container and the table. This helps the bow look like it wraps all around..
- To eat, remove the cucumber bows and take away the omelet lid with the plastic wrap attached..
