Ingredients

  • ½ cup Wild Alaska Coho Salmon Meat
  • 1 tbsp kewpie mayo
  • 2 tsp sriracha
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1-2 cups cooked and cooled sushi rice
  • 1 avocado
  • Nori sheets, as needed
  • soy sauce for serving
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)

Directions

  1. Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix Coho salmon meat with the kewpie mayo, sriracha, and sesame oil. Adjust spice level to taste.

  2. Prepare the Avocado: Slice the avocado into small cubes and set aside.

  3. Shape the Rice: Place a handful of cooled sushi rice on a piece of plastic wrap and flatten it into a small patty.

  4. Add the Filling: Place a spoonful of the salmon mixture and a few avocado cubes in the center of the rice.

  5. Seal the Onigiri: Use the plastic wrap to gently mold the rice around the filling, shaping it into a triangle or ball, ensuring the filling is enclosed.

  6. Wrap with Seaweed: Cut a sheet of seaweed into strips and wrap the bottom of the rice ball with the seaweed.

  7. Optional Garnish: Sprinkle with sesame seeds or a drizzle of additional sesame oil for extra flavor.

  8. Serve immediately with soy sauce for dipping, or store in the fridge for later!
