Description

Instead of rolling your own California rolls, you can toss all the components - crabmeat, avocado, nori, and rice - into this sushi salad.

Ingredients

1 cup water
1/2 cup uncooked short-grain white rice
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons pickled ginger, with juice
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon white sugar
2 teaspoons wasabi powder, or to taste
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 cups shredded imitation crabmeat
1 avocado, cubed
1/2 English cucumber, cut into 1-inch strips
3 sheets nori, crumbled

Directions

1 Bring water and rice to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Let cool, about 15 minutes.
2 Stir rice wine vinegar, pickled ginger juice, mayonnaise, soy sauce, sugar, wasabi powder, and sesame oil together in a bowl. Pour over cooled rice; mix to coat and break up clumps.
3 Dice pickled ginger. Fold ginger, crabmeat, avocado, cucumber, and nori gently into rice. Chill until serving.
