Cooked sushi rice is molded around wild Alaska ground coho salmon, avocado and cucumber, then rolled in sesame seeds and furikake and topped with sriracha mayo.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup Wild Alaska Coho Salmon Meat
  • 2 cups cooked sushi rice, room temperature
  • ½ avocado, diced
  • 2 tbsp diced cucumber
  • black sesame seeds
  • furikake seasoning
  • sliced jalapeño to garnish
  • sriracha mayo and soy sauce
  • Saran Wrap

Directions

  1. Start with a large piece of saran wrap.

  2. Add a round layer of cooked sushi rice to the Saran Wrap.

  3. In the center of the rice, add a spoonful of ground salmon, avocado, and diced cucumber.

  4. Add more rice on top.

  5. Wrap up the sides of the saran wrap to create a ball shape. Press tightly into a ball. (The smaller the ball, the easier it is to make and roll in sesame seeds)

  6. Add sesame seeds and furikake seasoning to a small bowl or plate.

  7. Roll the Onigiri ball in sesame seeds until well covered. Top with sriracha mayo and a slice of jalapeño.

  8. Serve with soy sauce and enjoy!
