Instructions

  1. 1 Soak rice for 4 hours. Drain rice and cook in a rice cooker with 2 cups of water. Rice must be slightly dry as vinegar will be added later.
  2. 2 Immediately after rice is cooked, mix in rice wine vinegar; spread rice on a plate until completely cool.
  3. 3 Place 1 sheet of seaweed on a bamboo mat; press a thin layer of cool rice on seaweed, leaving at least a 1/2 inch top and bottom edge of the seaweed uncovered. This is for easier sealing later. Dot some wasabi on rice; arrange smoked salmon, cucumber, and avocado on rice about 1 inch away from the bottom edge of seaweed.
  4. 4 Slightly wet the top edge of seaweed; roll up tightly from the bottom to the top edge with the help of the bamboo mat. Cut salmon roll into 8 equal pieces and serve. Repeat for other rolls.

Instructions

  1. 1 Rinse rice in a strainer under cold running water until water runs clear. Combine rice and water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes. Remove from heat.
  2. 2 Meanwhile, combine rice wine vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Remove and allow to cool. Stir vinegar mixture into the cooked rice - rice will dry as it cools. Allow rice to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  3. 3 Place a sheet of nori onto a sushi mat. Place about 1/2 cup rice on top and, using a rice paddle, spread rice onto the nori sheet.
  4. 4 Flip nori over so rice is facing down. Arrange 3 to 4 avocado slices, about 2 ounces salmon, 1 strip green onion, and 2 teaspoons Sriracha mayonnaise down the middle of the nori sheet.
  5. 5 Carefully, but tightly, roll nori up by closing in on the ingredients to form a roll. Drizzle each roll with hoisin sauce and more Sriracha mayonnaise and sprinkle with both types of sesame seeds.
  6. 6 Slice each sushi roll into 8 pieces. Serve with a dollop of wasabi and pickled ginger on the side.

Instructions

  1. 1 Combine ground pork, cabbage, egg, spring onions, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, sake, mirin, and ginger in a large bowl; mix well.
  2. 2 Place approximately 1 to 2 teaspoons of the pork mixture in the center of each gyoza wrapper. Moisten your fingers with water and rub around the edges of each wrapper. Fold wrappers in half over filling, creating a semi circle. Take one side of the wrapper and make crimps along the edges for a decorative pattern (like pleats of a skirt) and press along the edges to seal the two sides together. Ensure there isn't much excess air caught inside the dumpling. Repeat until all the pork mixture is used.
  3. 3 Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place as many gyoza in the skillet as fit in a single layer and fry until the bottom is browned, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add water to skillet and reduce heat. Cover and allow gyoza to steam until all the water has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Repeat with the remaining gyoza.
  4. 4 Mix rice vinegar and soy sauce together for a dipping sauce and serve with the gyoza.

Instructions

  1. 1 Combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and chili sauce in a small mixing bowl for dipping sauce. Set aside.
  2. 2 Combine pork, leeks, mushrooms, garlic, rice wine, soy sauce, ginger, sesame oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix well to form a uniform mixture.
  3. 3 Take one round dumpling wrapper and put 2 tablespoons of the pork mixture on 1/2 of the wrapper. Leave approximately 1/8 inch space from the end of the dumpling. Using a brush or your finger, apply a thin coat of water all along the open space. Fold the wrapper over and push down, so the two sides get "glued" together and form a half moon. Use a fork to pinch down on the edges of the half moon to seal. Repeat to make remaining dumplings.
  4. 4 Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Place the dumplings into the pan in one layer; do not overcrowd. Cook the dumplings for 3 to 4 minutes.
  5. 5 Without flipping the dumplings, pour about 4 tablespoons of water into the pan and cover immediately. Allow the dumplings to steam until the water has evaporated and the meat inside has cooked, 3 to 4 minutes.
  6. 6 Remove the lid and pour remaining tablespoon of oil into the pan and let the dumplings crisp up from the bottom; do not flip-gyoza should only be crisp on one side and steamed on the other. Place the dumplings browned-side up on a plate. Repeat with remaining dumplings and more oil as necessary. Serve with the dipping sauce.
