B ★ 5.0/5

This rice turned out great. Thank you!

Dylan ★ 5.0/5

Very creative. Would try but I just love the taste and smell of real sushi. Substituting might just make me eat the real thing. Thanks again.

Daryl Grant Lindsay ★ 5.0/5

Well, I'll take a "wild guess" and say that I'll bet the pink stuff is pickled ginger, although I've never seen it in quite that form before, sort of "chunks"....usually it's very thin slices....I LOVE the stuff on veggie sushi!......and speaking of which, I do ADORE regular "real" sushi rice, but whenever I get veggie sushi, I have them make it using BROWN rice, just because it's so much healthier than white. Do you think your recipe would work "okay" substituting brown rice??

By the way, I only just recently was turned on to your site, thanks to "Thomas" of "FULL OF PLANTS" mentioning you and your site in one of his comments. And so far I think you (AND your site) are simply WONDERFUL!!!!!

Sincerely,

Daryl

PS: I gave this recipe a 5-star rating even though I've not tried it (yet) because I have ABSOLUTELY ZERO DOUBTS about it being anything less than 5-Star!!!

This looks great and really easy, but can you possibly suggest something to use other than the rice vinegar? The reason that I am asking is that any kinds of vinegar can cause anaphylaxis in me! I realize this is a very odd allergy, and it didn't develop till I was in my mid 30's, and it is really rather irritating as I LOVE sushi, but now have to avoid it unless it's sashimi (and that gets boring fast, lol!). Just wondering as I really want to make this!

Did you make this recipe?

Thanks for rating!
