SPICY TUNA RECIPE

Steps:

• Prepare spicy tuna sauce mixture: In a medium sized mixing bowl combine Sriracha, chili oil and a pinch of sea salt. Stir to combine well.
• Prepare the spicy tuna: Add the tuna, masago, white parts of the scallions and sesame seeds to the bowl. Gently mix together.
• OPTIONAL: Cover the bowl and place the spicy tuna in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to allow the flavors to marry.
• Prepare the Spicy Mayonnaise: Combine the mayonnaise and sriracha in a small bowl. Whisk well to mix together. Taste and adjust for spiciness with more sriracha if desired..
• Serve: Drizzle spicy mayonnaise over tuna mixture and enjoy!

SPICY TUNA

Steps:

• Gather all the ingredients.
• Cut the green onions, and keep the white part and green part separated. We use the green part for garnish and white part to be mixed in with the tuna.
• Combine 1 ½ Tbsp Sriracha sauce and ½ tsp sesame oil and mix well together.
• Cut the sashimi-grade tuna into small cubes, about ¼ inch pieces.
• Mix the tuna with the sauce and add the white part of the green onion.
• Transfer the spicy tuna in a serving bowl and garnish with the sesame seeds and the green part of the green onion.
• If you like to drizzle some spicy mayo (optional), combine 1 Tbsp Japanese mayo and 1 tsp Sriracha sauce and mix well. Set aside.
• You can serve spicy tuna over rice or inside sushi roll (spicy tuna roll recipe), or with crackers. Drizzle spicy mayo on top.

SPICY TUNA SUSHI ROLL

Steps:

• Bring the rice, water, and vinegar 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. Let stand, covered, for about 10 minutes to absorb any excess water. Set rice aside to cool.
• Lightly mix together the tuna, mayonnaise, chili powder, and wasabi paste in a bowl, breaking the tuna apart but not mashing it into a paste.
• To roll the sushi, cover a bamboo sushi rolling mat with plastic wrap. Lay a sheet of nori, rough side up, on the plastic wrap. With wet fingers, firmly pat a thick, even layer of prepared rice over the nori, covering it completely. Place about 1 tablespoon each of diced cucumber, carrot, and avocado in a line along the bottom edge of the sheet, and spread a line of tuna mixture alongside the vegetables.
• Pick up the edge of the bamboo rolling sheet, fold the bottom edge of the sheet up, enclosing the filling, and tightly roll the sushi into a thick cylinder. Once the sushi is rolled, wrap it in the mat and gently squeeze to compact it tightly. Cut each roll into 6 pieces, and refrigerate until served.

INSIDE-OUT SPICY TUNA AND AVOCADO SUSHI

Steps:

• Rinse rice in a strainer until water runs clear.
• Combine rice and water in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until rice is tender and water is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
• Combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan over low heat; stir until sugar is dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour over rice; stir until rice cools and looks dry.
• Mix tuna, mayonnaise, chile oil, sesame oil, sriracha sauce, and green onion in a bowl with a fork, mashing to break up some of the chunks. Leave a few chunks intact for texture.
• Cover a bamboo sushi rolling mat with plastic wrap. Lay 1 nori sheet, shiny-side down, on the mat. Spread a thin layer of rice over the nori. Layer avocado slices across the rice. Flip nori sheet so avocado is against the mat. Spread a generous layer of tuna mixture 3/4 of the way down the back of the nori; top with cucumber matchsticks.
• Roll up sushi using the rolling mat, tucking in ends with the plastic wrap. Remove plastic wrap and place sushi roll on a plate. Repeat with remaining nori, rice, avocado, tuna mixture, and cucumber.

SPICY TUNA PAN SUSHI (NO ROLLING!)

Steps:

• To make the spicy mayo, mix the mayo, Sriracha sauce, lemon juice and soy sauce. Cover and stir in the fridge until you are ready to use.
• To make the sushi, cook the rice according to package directions. While it is still hot, stir in the rice vinegar, sugar and salt (if using).
• Spray a 9x13 pan VERY WELL with non-stick cooking spray or line it with wax paper (I used cooking spray and it worked well). Try to use a pan that has straight edges on the bottom.
• When the rice is cool enough to handle, measure out 2 1/2 cups and press it evenly in the bottom of the pan.
• Layer 2 sheets of nori over the rice and press to make it stick. Cut the nori so it fits, if necessary.
• Open the tuna and drain.
• Place tuna in a medium bowl and add the spicy mayo until the tuna is creamy. I used all of it in mine but adjust the amount to your liking.
• Spread the tuna/mayo mixture on the nori.
• For the next layer, alternate between scallion and carrot, lying them in rows across the sushi, until the tuna is covered.
• Top the crab meat with 2 more nori sheets and press lightly to compact everything.
• Take the remaining 2 1/2 cups of sticky rice and carefully spread it out over the nori.
• Cover with wax paper and press everything firmly into the pan. I actually used a brick to make sure the edges were pressed, too. A pancake turner would work as long as you really press with all your might.
• Keeping the wax paper over the top of the sushi, place a cutting board on top of the pan.
• Quickly but carefully flip the pan onto the cutting board. If the sushi sticks, tap lightly with a wooden spoon until it releases. If you lined the pan with wax paper, remove the paper now.
• Sprinkle rice with sesame seeds, to taste.
• Cut the sushi into squares with a very sharp knife. If it is still sticking, try wetting the knife in between cuts.
• Serve with soy sauce, pickled ginger and wasabi.

SPICY TUNA ROLL - SUSHI

Steps:

• Place the sheet of seaweed on your working space.
• Take the sushi rice and place on top of the sheet, working it's way down to cover the whole sheet. (NOTE: it is easier to work with sushi rice if your hands are wet).
• Mix all the rest of your ingredients together, along with the Spicy Sauce.
• Flip your seaweed sheet with the sushi rice on it sushi rice down.
• Place the tuna mixed with the other ingredients in the center of the seaweed.
• Roll the seaweed sheet up and around the tuna and then take a bamboo sheet and make sure the roll is compacted and shaped.
• Cut the roll into 4, 6 or 8 pieces.
• Serve with the ginger, wasabi and soy sauce if desired.
• Enjoy!

SPICY TUNA SALAD SUSHI ROLL

Steps:

• Sumeshi: Rinse the rice thoroughly to drain some of the gluten from the rice.
• Cook the rice, using equal parts rice and water. I use a rice cooker, but you can also cook it on the stove if you don't have a rice cooker.
• Put the rice vinegar and sugar in a small pot over medium heat.
• Stir until the sugar has melted into the rice vinegar.
• Once the rice is finished cooking, take the rice out of the pot and put it in the hangiri (japanese wooden bowl), or a large bowl if you don't have a hangiri.
• Cool the rice and rice vinegar mix, then slowly pour the rice vinegar mix over the rice, using a cutting motion to mix it into the rice with the rice paddle (or wooden spoon). Keep a little leftover to use in the sushi preparation.
• To Prepare the sushi: Drain your tuna and mix all of the tuna salad ingredients together.
• Now take one piece of nori and place it on your sushi roller (recommended for getting tight rolls but in a fix you could use a stiff towel). Wet your fingers with the cooled rice vinegar mixture and press a fairly thin sheet of rice onto the bottom 3/4 of the sheet, leaving room at the top of your roll to seal it.
• Using a spoon, place a generous line of tuna a little lower than the half way point on your rice square. Then add a line of your lettuce leaves on top of the tuna.
• Begin rolling from the bottom, tucking firmly with each roll to tighten it. Be careful not to smoosh it though, it's a delicate balance but you'll get the hang of it after awhile.
• Once you've gotten to the blank top of your roll take a little of the rice vinegar mixture and apply it to the inside, roll it up and use a little more on the closed roll if it's not fully sealed.
• Using a sharp, wet knife cut into bite sized pieces. You can serve this with the traditional wasabi-soy sauce mixture but it's so flavorful it's not necessary.

DYNAMITE SAUCE FOR SUSHI

Steps:

• Mix the three ingredients together.
• You may add more hot sauce or Masago to your tastes.
