Salmon Sushi Cake for Halloween
- 360 ml For the sushi rice:
- 100 grams Smoked salmon slices
- 10 leaves Shiso leaves
- 1 sheet Nori seaweed
- 1 egg Thin omelet
- Make sushi rice using sugar, salt, konbucha (salted kelp powder) and vinegar, or use ready-made sushi vinegar or sushi powder mix.
- Make a thin omelet and let cool.
- Remove stems of shiso leaves.
- Cut face parts out of nori seaweed and keep the scraps since they will be used for the filling.
- Line a cake tin with plastic wrap.
- Arrange the smoked salmon on the bottom of the pan, overlapping the slices.
- Put 5 of the shiso leaves on top of the salmon.
- Spread half of the sushi rice on top of the shiso leaves.
- Make another layer with the remaining shiso leaves and the thin omelet.
- Tear the leftover nori seaweed into pieces and sprinkle it on top.
- Spread the remaining sushi rice on top as the final layer.
- Cover with plastic wrap and press firmly with the bottom of a glass or with your hand.
- Cover with a plate and carefully invert.
- Remove the layer of plastic wrap and make the face cut out of nori seaweed.
- Cut it in slices, like a cake.
- The omelet didn't stick to the rice very well, so it might be good to spread a bit of mayonnaise on it in Step 4 to help it hold together.
- Since it is a kind of sushi, you could serve it with soy sauce, but since the salmon is already salty, you won't need much.
