- 2 tbsp Black rice
- 360 ml White rice
- 100 grams of a, 50 grams of b Edamame (A - in the pods) (B - shelled)
- 30 grams Corn kernels
- 1/6 of a carrot Carrots (2 mm julienne)
- 5 Aburaage (small ones, about 11 x 6 cm square)
- 30 grams Chirimen jako
- 2 tbsp White toasted sesame seeds (or golden sesame seeds if you have them)
- 250 ml Dashi stock
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 1/2 tbsp Sugar
- 4 tbsp Mirin
- 1 tbsp Sake
- 10 cm piece Kombu to made dashi stock (to cook the rice)
- 5 tbsp Vinegar
- 3 tbsp Sugar
- 1 tsp Salt
- Rinse the rice, drain into a fine mesh sieve and leave for about 15 minutes.
- Put the rice in the bowl of a rice cooker with the carrot, black rice, sake and kombu, and cook with just a little less water than usual (about 2 mm lower than the regular rice setting).
- Slice the aburaage into halves so each half makes a little pouch.
- Roll gently with a rolling pin (over plastic wrap) if they're difficult to open up.
- Pour boiling water over the opened up aburaage to get rid of the surface oil.
- Simmer for about 20 minutes in the dashi stock, soy sauce an mirin, covered with a small lid sitting directly on the contents of the pan (otoshibuta).
- When the aburaage is cooked and the sauce reduced, turn the heat off and leave to rest in the pan until cool.
- The flavor of the simmered aburaage varies on the soy sauce you use, so adjust to taste.
- Mix the ingredients together, or use bottled sushi vinegar.
- When the rice has finished cooking, take out the kombu and mix in the edamame and corn while still hot.
- Close the rice cooker after you've added these and leave it on the keep-warm setting for about 3 minutes.
- Make the sushi rice: Turn the hot rice out into a bowl, Add the sushi vinegar (or the combined ingredients and mix in while fanning the rice.
- When the rice has cooled down a bit add the chirimen jako and sesame seeds.
- Stuff the sushi rice attractively in the simmered aburaage pockets to finish.
