I use thin slivers of pickled ginger, along with other veggies, tofu, etc...exotic! To make your own just thinly slice fresh ginger root and soak in rice vinegar for a day or longer.

Yum yum! The PPK helped alot with tops, but sushi is so easy!
I julienned and steamed carrot and zucchini and bought delicious Japanese tofu (marinated fried kinda stuff they use in veggie sushi at the local sushi place) and of course added slices of avocado. I even added some vegan mayo too :)

Okay, I'm posting again, but I really love this recipe for sushi rice. :-* This time I used 5 oz. crumbled extra firm tofu mixed with 3 tbsn vegenaise and 1 tbsn spicy chili sauce. I could LIVE on sushi and this recipe has helped me so much! Thank you.  :)>>>

While it always takes longer to make than I expect, this was well worth it! ::) I liked the ratio of rice to vinegar and sugar (I used half the salt) as I have made questionable rice in the past. 8-)
I crumbled a package of tempeh into a frying pan, covered it with water and simmered until the water was absorbed/evaporated. I made a spicy mayo with Vegenaise and chili sauce and mixed it with the cooled tempeh.
Can't wait to try this with vegan cream cheese and maybe smoked tofu! I just wish I had my own sushi chef. I would eat this for lunch every day!!

I just made this for my cross country team picnic, i used carrots, broccoli, and avocado. It looks pretty good so far (i've wrapped them) but i'm going to let them sit in the fridge overnight because i'm very nervous about cutting them. I have high hopes as the rice tasted very much like sushi rice.

I changed this up a little bit. I only used 2 tbsp. of sugar and 1 tsp of salt.  I used avacado, cucumber, carrot, raddish sprouts, and vegan shrimp.  Then I made a spicy sauce with vegan mayo and chili sauce. It was really really good!!!

I found a short grain brown rice at the asian market. works great... Its sticky like sushi rice. I like whole grains, so before that I was using regular brown rice with much frustration. I put marinated tofu, avocado, red pepper, garlic chives, and cucumber. lately I spread on the rice some tomato pesto. I make it with sundried tomatoes raisins garlic and molasses. also sprinkle the finished rolls with black sesame seeds.
