Number of servings: 4 people = 11cm (4.3inch) round cake pan

Ingredients:

((Sushi Rice)) I have from scratch video already

700g (1.5lb) cooked Japanese short grain rice

Add the Sushi vinegar while the rice is still hot and slice through the rice using a rice paddle to separate the grains. Let the rice cool. Use a fan to cool the rice if available to create an added shine on your Sushi rice but it is optional.

((Kinshi Tamago: shredded egg crepe))

Season an egg with sugar and salt. Strain with a strainer. Heat cooking oil in a frying pan and make a thin omelet. Leave to cool on a plate, then cut into thin strips.

Wet the cake pan (or line with plastic wrap). Place the Sushi rice and press down flat with a rice paddle or a spoon. Sprinkle with toasted black sesame seeds (make sure you cover the edges). Place the Sushi rice again. Place smoked salmon, Sushi rice, black sesame seeds, and Sushi rice one after another and flatten as well. Turn the cake pan upside down onto a plate to remove the rice.

Spread Kinshi Tamago (shredded egg crepe) over the rice. Be creative and decorate the Sushi cake with any black and orange food ingredients. Simple toppings are absolutely Okay.
