Loquat Stuffed Sushi for Tanabata Festival

• 1 Loquat
• 1 packet Chirashi-zushi mix
• 1 dash Lemon or Yuzu vinegar
• 1 dash Thyme (or shredded nori)

1. Prepare the instant chirashi-zushi mix.
2. Use lemon, etc., to add an acidic flavor.
3. (It's also okay to add some salty flavor.)
4. Wash the loquat well and cut in half.
5. Since you want the halves to be stable, level off the bottoms.
6. Use a spoon to scoop out the seeds.
7. Peel the skin and dip into salted water.
8. Stuff to the brim with the chirashi-zushi from Step 1, arrange on a dish, top with your choice of toppings, and it's done.
9. These ones are cut for dessert.
10. You could also use them as toppings for chirashi-zushi on a large plate.
