SALMON ROLL

Steps:

• Cut each salmon slice into a 2-by-4-inch rectangle, reserving trimmed edges for another use. Cover a baking sheet with plastic wrap. Lay the salmon out on the plastic wrap, and cover with another layer of plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, combine crab meat and cream, mixing with a fork to break up the crab into fine shreds and to bind it lightly with the cream. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• For each salmon roll, lay a rectangle of salmon in the center of a 12-by-6-inch square of plastic wrap. Evenly spread about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the crab mixture on the salmon. Begin rolling the salmon on its long side, lifting the plastic wrap to help form the salmon into a cigarette shape. Twist the ends of the plastic wrap tightly to make the cylinder compact, and use your hands to make it a uniform shape. Place rolls on a small baking sheet, and chill in the freezer for 1 hour. The rolls may be made and frozen up to 2 days in advance.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the pesto and olive oil, and season to taste with salt. Set aside.
• An hour before serving, remove salmon rolls from freezer. Remove plastic wrap, and cut the ends from each roll to make neat cylinders. Let warm to room temperature. To serve, lay a salmon roll in the center of each plate. Spoon a little caviar (if using) on top of each, and garnish with a chervil sprig or small basil leaf. Spoon a little pesto oil on the plate, and serve.

Place about 2 tablespoons of the salmon mixture, diagonally, in a 1/2-inch wide strip, on the rice, with the top of the salmon mixture facing the top left corner. Place a spear of asparagus on top of the salmon. Starting with the bottom left corner, roll the nori over the filling. Continue to roll, ice cream cone-fashion, working towards the right corner of the nori. Seal the edge of the hand roll with water or a few grains of the cooked rice. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.

SMOKED SALMON SUSHI ROLL

Steps:

• Soak rice for 4 hours. Drain rice and cook in a rice cooker with 2 cups of water. Rice must be slightly dry as vinegar will be added later.
• Immediately after rice is cooked, mix in 6 tablespoons rice vinegar to the hot rice. Spread rice on a plate until completely cool.
• Place 1 sheet of seaweed on bamboo mat, press a thin layer of cool rice on the seaweed. Leave at least 1/2 inch top and bottom edge of the seaweed uncovered. This is for easier sealing later. Dot some wasabi on the rice. Arrange cucumber, avocado and smoked salmon to the rice. Position them about 1 inch away from the bottom edge of the seaweed.
• Slightly wet the top edge of the seaweed. Roll from bottom to the top edge with the help of the bamboo mat tightly. Cut roll into 8 equal pieces and serve. Repeat for other rolls.

SMOKED SALMON CREAM CHEESE ROLL

• Cut roll into 1/4 inch slices, serve on crackers or pieces of bagel.
• (If Lemongrass& Chilli is not available, (I was lucky enough to have a lovely person send me some from New Zealand, wonderful stuff!), use your favourite Hot spice.).
• An alternate way to do these, works well.
• Use unsliced, home smoked salmon, broken into small pieces and add to the mix after processing, so that there are little lumps of the smoked salmon. Roll in the plastic wrap and freeze until using. Then wrap very thin slices around roll after defrosting.
• You could even freeze the rolls without any salmon after wrapping and wrap with the slices of salmon when serving.

SALMON CRESCENT ROLLS

SOY-GLAZED SALMON HAND ROLLS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. In a small saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium. Stir in garlic until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add soy sauce, mirin, sugar, black pepper and ¼ teaspoon salt, and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce is reduced by about a third and has thickened slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in ginger and remove from heat. You should have about ½ cup sauce; reserve half of the sauce in a small bowl for serving and set aside.
• Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil. Place salmon on the prepared sheet, rub with the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt. Coat the salmon on both sides with the other half of the sauce.
• Roast salmon for 5 minutes, then baste with the sauce that's dripped onto the sheet tray. Continue to roast until salmon is just cooked to medium, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer salmon to a large plate.
• Flake salmon into bite-size pieces and drizzle with the reserved sauce. To build hand rolls, top seaweed with some rice (if using), cucumbers, avocado and salmon. Wrap and enjoy. Serve with optional wasabi on the side, and dab a little onto the salmon for a spicy hit.

DOUBLE SALMON ROLL

Steps:

• Flake the hot-smoked salmon into a bowl, discarding the skin. Add the horseradish, lemon juice, soft cheese, finely snipped chives and some seasoning and beat well until combined to a rough mousse texture.
• Lay 2 sheets of cling film overlapping on your work surface, then lay the sliced smoked salmon out to make a rectangle about 20 x 50cm. Dollop the hot-smoked salmon mix over and gently spread over evenly. Use the edge of the cling film to roll the long side of the rectangle into itself, then roll up like a Swiss roll. Wrap in the film, twisting the ends like a cracker to secure and hold the shape. Freeze for up to a month.
• Transfer the roll from the freezer to the fridge the day before you want to serve it. While still semi-frozen, cut into thick slices, lay on a tray, then leave to defrost completely in the fridge. Serve with leaves mixed with chives and a little dressing, and some melba toast.
