Description
This traditional Japanese dish is both sweet and savory and can be served as a snack, as part of a sushi dinner, or as a side dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups sushi rice – visit my post on how to make sushi rice
- 1 (10oz) can inarizushi no moto (reserve the liquid)
- 1 tablespoon black or white sesame seeds
Instructions
- Add sesame seeds to the sushi rice and gently fold the rice (not too much otherwise the rice will get mushy).
- Make rice balls by holding about a small handful or rice in your hands.
- Pour the inarizushi no moto liquid in a bowl and wet your palms and fingers with it.
- Open an inarizushi pocket and place a rice ball inside the pocket. Repeat this step until all the pockets are filled.
- Serve.
Notes
Inari sushi is best when eaten fresh but you can keep them refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Do not microwave, eat them cold.
