Eel Oshi Sushi

What is Eel Oshi Sushi?

Eel oshi sushi is a California-inspired sushi roll featuring a pressed sushi cake filled with eel, avocado, cucumber, and creamy fish sauce. The name "oshi" refers to the technique of pressing the sushi rice into a compact cube before slicing and serving.

Ingredients:

  • Sushi rice
  • Eel, cut into thin strips
  • Avocado, cubed
  • Cucumber, cut into matchsticks
  • Creamy fish sauce (a mix of soy sauce, sugar, and fish extract)
  • Soy sauce for dipping
  • Flavor and Texture:

    Eel oshi sushi has a rich and savory flavor. The eel provides a smoky and salty taste, while the avocado adds a creamy texture and a touch of sweetness. The cucumber provides a refreshing crunch, and the creamy fish sauce adds umami notes.

    How It's Made:

    1. Sushi rice is cooked and cooled.

    2. Eel strips, avocado cubes, and cucumber matchsticks are combined with creamy fish sauce and pressed together in a mold.

    3. The mold is then pressed to create a cube-shaped sushi cake.

    4. The cube is sliced into bite-sized pieces.

    How to Eat:

    1. Pick up a piece of eel oshi sushi with chopsticks.

    2. Dip the sushi in soy sauce, if desired.

    3. Bite down and savor the flavors.
