Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Sushi Rice (1 go) (approx. 320g)
  • Egg 1
  • Potato Starch 1/2 tsp
  • Nanohana (Rapeseed Blossoms) 1 stalk
  • Peeled Shrimp 2
  • Smoked Salmon 1 slice
  • Tofu (from a 150g pack)

Seasonings

  • [A] Vinegar 2 tbsp
  • [A] Sugar 1 tbsp
  • [A] Salt 1/2 tsp
  • Toasted Sesame Seeds 2 tsp
  • [B] Water 1 tsp
  • [B] Salt a pinch
  • [C] Shiro Dashi (White Soy Sauce Base) 2 tbsp

Steps

  1. Prepare an empty tofu pack (150g size) to be used as a mold.
  2. In a bowl, mix 2 tbsp vinegar, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt to make sushi vinegar.
  3. In another bowl, add sushi rice (1 go) (approx. 320g). Gradually pour in the sushi vinegar while mixing and cooling the rice, cutting through it as you mix. [This is the key!] Continue mixing until the sushi vinegar is evenly distributed and the rice has a glossy sheen.
  4. Add 2 tsp toasted sesame seeds to the rice and mix.
  5. In a bowl, dissolve 1/2 tsp potato starch, 1 tsp water, and a pinch of salt.
  6. Crack 1 egg into a separate bowl, lightly beat it, and mix with the potato starch slurry.
  7. Lightly oil an egg roll pan and heat over medium heat.
  8. Once the pan is hot, pour in half of the beaten egg mixture and cook.
  9. Once the egg is set, flip it over and cook the other side for about 10 seconds. Remove and let cool. Repeat with the remaining egg mixture.
  10. Bring water to a boil in a pot and blanch 1 stalk of nanohana for about 30 seconds.
  11. Cook 2 peeled shrimp in the same boiling water until cooked through.
  12. Bring 300ml water to a boil in a pot, add the tofu cut into bite-sized pieces, and heat for 3 to 4 minutes.
  13. Once the tofu is heated, add 2 tbsp shiro dashi and the nanohana cut into bite-sized pieces, then heat.
  14. Once the nanohana is cooked, bring to a boil over high heat and pour in 1 beaten egg.
  15. Stir briefly and immediately turn off the heat to finish the tofu and nanohana egg drop soup.
  16. Let the thin egg omelets cool slightly, stack them, roll them lengthwise, and cut into thin strips to make shredded egg.
  17. Squeeze out the water from the nanohana by hand, then finely chop. Use the peeled shrimp as they are.
  18. In the tofu pack, spread 1/4 of the shredded egg, then 1/4 of the sushi rice on top.
  19. Firmly press the sushi rice down to pack it tightly.
  20. Spread another 1/4 of the shredded egg, followed by 1/4 of the sushi rice.
  21. Alternate layers of sushi rice and egg, then place a plate on top, flip the pack, and remove the oshizushi.
  22. Make the remaining oshizushi using the rest of the ingredients.
  23. Arrange the chopped nanohana and cooked peeled shrimp on top of the oshizushi.
  24. Cut 1 slice of smoked salmon in half lengthwise, roll it into a flower shape, and arrange it on top of the oshizushi.
  25. Completed: Easy "Egg Oshizushi" made with tofu packs.
