Where home chefs learn the art of sushi.

Shrimp Avocado Gunkanmaki

Shrimp avocado gunkanmaki is the perfect place to start learning these types of rolls.  This roll doesn’t use ingredients that are expensive or hard to find.  You should be able to find everything here at any grocery store.  If your local store doesn’t have nori you can get some through our store.  These are quick and easy to make and taste great.

Start with a small piece of rice formed into an oval shape.  This part should look like the rice for a piece of nigiri.

Wrap a thin piece of nori around the rice (approximately 1/6th sheet of nori).

Wet the end to seal the wrap.  Hold for a few seconds to let it seal.

Add sauce or wasabi to the base of the rice for flavor.

In this instance we are using wasabi, but you can use any ingredients on the bottom.  It can be meat, veggies, sauces or toppings.  Get creative!

For this example we are making a shrimp and avocado roll.  

Top with some unagi sauce

Add some masago for color, texture, and flavor.  

There you go! you made battleship sushi in very little time.  These rolls are very fun to make with a group.  You can make many of the same rolls or have each one be unique.  There are as many variations on these as there are ingredients in your pantry.
