An acclaimed Japanese vegan chef presents an innovative collection of recipes and techniques for making sushi, nigiri, rolls and more-all without meat. Sushi is perhaps the most iconic Japanese food. But as any vegan or vegetarian knows, there's only so many cucumber rolls a person can eat. Enter chef iina with her unique, all-vegan re-creations of classic sushi rolls and bites. She calls them Sushi Modoki-"modoki" being Japanese for "mimic." In iina's hands, tomatoes transform into "fatty tuna," mushrooms into "scallops," and carrots into "salmon"-with mind-boggling, irresistibly delicious results. Clear, step-by-step instructions show you how to make five different styles of sushi with all-natural, whole ingredients-and assemble elegant plates bursting with color and crunch:
- Nigiri:"fish" over rice
- Maki:sushi rolls
- Chirashi:scattered sushi bowls
- Inari:fried tofu stuffed with "fish" and rice
- Oshi:pressed sushi
