Palm Beach Shrimp Tempura Sushi Roll with Avocado on Top


Sushi Online

How to Make a Palm Beach Shrimp Tempura Sushi Roll with Avocado on Top

This is easily one of the best recipes for sushi available today. Place the sushi mat inside of the gallon sized plastic freezer bag, this ensures that the sushi rice does not become embedded into the mat, and is easy to clean up when you are going to make sushi from home. Lay the Nori seaweed square on top of the plastic covered sushi roll mat. Wet your hands and shake dry. Add a handful of prepared sushi rice in the middle of the Nori and gently spread out to the edges.
Press down gently, and flip the sushi rice covered Nori so that he rice side is touching the plastic covered sushi roll mat. Next, add the slice of cream cheese, I like to slice it straight from the block into one long rectangle and lay it the entire length of the Nori. This adds a creamy delicious flavor that goes well with any American sushi roll, particularly one with shrimp tempura. The easiest and tastiest way to use the shrimp tempura in this recipe is to stick them in a hot toaster oven for about ten minutes until they are golden and crispy. Prepared shrimp tempura can be purchased from your local marketplace in the frozen food section.
Make sure that the shrimp tempura has had adequate time to cool prior to placing them next to the cream cheese so that the cream cheese does not melt. Next add the fresh julienned cucumber. Now it is time to roll! Roll the sushi mat over the roll, away from you, creating a nice seal from the sushi rice on sushi rice effect. Roll it again to ensure that it is fully sealed. Cut open and scoop out the contents of the avocado in as large of a piece as you can manage. Cut the avocado into thin slices, and place on top of the sushi roll. I like to use avocados that are slightly riper than normal so that they form to the top of the sushi roll better. Place a piece of cellophane wrap over the top and gently press down across the entirety of the roll. Grab your serrated knife, making sure that it is really wet, and slice through the center of the sushi roll, while leaving the cellophane in place. Cut those pieces is half again, and then each piece in half again until you have eight equal sized pieces of sushi roll. Make sure to wipe your knife off in between cuts so that the cream cheese does not build up and cause the Nori to tear. Drizzle eel sauce on top to add a delicious sweetness.
This is an amazing flavor combination as we have the cream cheese and creamy avocado, the crunchy fresh cucumbers, and the warm salty shrimp tempura. This easy sushi recipe should now be plated on a dark square, preferably black or red plate for a fancy guest presentation, or hide them and keep them all for you! After tasting this amazing American sushi recipe, you may decide that not sharing is your better option. Enjoy!

Salmon Potato Chip Casserole, Tuna Spread, Smoked Salmon

How to Cook Seafood The Old-Fashion Way; Salmon Potato Chip Casserole, Tuna Spread, Smoked Salmon

If you enjoy meals the ways grandma made them, here are some of the recipes from her day. I have a large collection of vintage recipe which I enjoy sharing with you. From the comments I receive, I know many of you enjoy the old-fashion recipes as much as I do. Try the Salmon-Potato Chip Casserole which uses canned salmon, an economical way to enjoy salmon. The Tuna Spread recipe is also an economical recipe using canned tuna. Both of these recipes are perfect for families trying to spread their food dollars. For those who prefer the Salmon Filet here is an old Michigan recipe for Smoked Salmon.

SALMON-POTATO CHIP CASSEROLE
This is an old recipe cut from a brand of potato chips that were popular in Indiana when I was a kid. The brand was CHESTY and we loved our CHESTY chips. Couldn't believe it when I ran across this 50 something year old recipe!
1 pkg CHESTY potato chips (I would say a regular family-size bag of today's chips.)
1 can (7-oz) salmon
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 cup milk
2 hard-boiled eggs, sliced
Break up the potato chips; flake salmon. Alternate layers in a well greased baking dish, starting and ending with potato chips. Combine the soup and milk and pour over the layers. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, or until the top is browned. Garnish with the hard-boiled eggs.

TUNA SPREAD
This recipe is from an old PTA cookbook.
1 pkg (3-oz) cream cheese
3 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tbsp minced onion
1 small clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp celery seed
1 tsp horseradish
1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp seasoned salt
1 can (6 1/2 to 7-oz) tuna fish
Combine all ingredients together, except the tuna fish; blend well. Drain the tuna fish well. Crumble the tuna and add to mayonnaise mixture. Blend well. Makes 1 1/4 cups.

EASY OLD TIME SMOKED SALMON
This old recipe is from Michigan, our neighbor to the north when I was a kid growing up in Indiana.
1 (2-lb) salmon fillet
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
1 1/2 tbsp Liquid Smoke
Spray an 11" x 7" x 2" baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Place the salmon fillet in the pan, skin side down. Season the salmon with the salt and pepper. Sprinkle the salmon with the brown sugar. Drizzle the liquid smoke over all. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours.
Drain salmon and discard the liquid. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 45 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. Cool to room temperature. Cover and refrigerate overnight or at least 8 hours.

Enjoy!
