How to Make Philly Roll Sushi

  1. Place one sheet (8.25 x 7.75 inches) of sushi nori seaweed on a bamboo rolling mat, shiny side down.
  2. Lightly spread 1 cup of prepared sushi rice over the nori, leaving a 1.5-inch strip of nori bare at the top edge closest to you.
  3. Arrange your toppings lengthwise in the center of the rice. (See ingredient list for suggested amounts)
  4. Using the bamboo mat, lift the bottom edge of the nori over the filling, tucking the rice tightly around the ingredients.
  5. Continue rolling tightly, using the mat to apply even pressure as you roll the sushi towards the top edge.
  6. Moisten the bare nori strip with a little water to seal the roll.
  7. Gently tighten the roll by pressing firmly along its length.
  8. Repeat steps 1-7 to make a second roll.
  9. Using a sharp, wet knife, cut each roll into eight equal pieces.
  10. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
