Sushi is one of those foods that has always intimidated me (and I’m talking about just veggie sushi). It always seems a bit tricky to make, rolling on a bamboo sheet and making sure the rice is cool enough before, and trying to avoid a sticky mess… I know, not the best cook in the kitchen. But, it doesn’t have to be over-complicated in order to produce a delicious final product. Take sushi for instance; it is simple in theory, but can also be simple in practice. It’s as easy as gathering the ingredients for veggie sushi, then making a super simple roll without any tricks—just the ingredients and some parchment paper for rolling.
After trial and error, I found a simple method for low-maintenance sushi. It doesn’t have to look pretty or roll up nicely into the perfect roll. What is most important is the taste and texture—soft and sticky from the rice, crunchy from radish and carrot, sweet and salty from the tangy sauce and a squeeze of lime juice. So if you are ever in the mood to make some light and refreshing veggie sushi, give this recipe a try. It is super simple to make, vegan, and free of common allergens. But, most importantly, it tastes delicious!
