Ages ago I saw the idea somewhere — combining all your favorite sushi roll ingredients in a bowl. If, like us, you’ve never gotten around to buying a rolling mat, this bypasses spending that money. Or, if you’re unskilled at the rolling itself (or lazy!), this is your chance to avoid that step and still acheive sushi noms. :-)<\/p>\n

This is a HIGHLY customizable dish, limited only by imagination. You could structure it as a fairly simple dish I suspect, or fix a lot of ingredients and eat leftovers for some time. We did more of a cooking party: four of us each cooked or prepared a few ingredients, according to our energy level and interest. It’s also a dish that each diner can customize to their particular preferences.<\/p>\n

I’ll share what ingredients we used and how we prepared them, to get you started. The rest is up to you!<\/p>\n
