4 teaspoonspickled ginger

Instructions

Step 1

Prepare sushi rice by rinsing it in cold water until the water starts to run clear. Then combine rice and 4 cups of water in a pot and pace over medium heat. Stir rice, cover pot with lid and simmer until rice has absorbed all liquid, about 10 minutes.

Step 2

While rice cooks, prepare veggies. Using a mandolin slicer or a knife, thinly slice cucumber and radish and set aside. Chop scallion and set aside.

Step 3

Combine sesame seeds, granulated garlic, granulated onion, and poppy seeds. This will be your crust for the salmon. Heavily coat one side of your salmon with this mixture.

Step 4

Heat a large saute pan on medium heat and drizzle a bit of sesame oil in the pan. Add salmon crust-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes. Add soy sauce to pan and swirl the soy sauce around each filet. Flip, and cook another 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

While salmon cooks, add frozen edamame to a microwave safe bowl and heat for 2 minutes.

Step 6

Build you bowls! Add some rice into the bottom and top with salmon. Arrange cucumber and radish slices around the bowl, and garnish with scallion, pickled ginger, and seaweed (nori). Sprinkle with extra sesame seeds and get out your chopsticks to enjoy!
