Preparation and Usage
How to make Futomaki Rolls: Futomaki (Japanese for 'thick roll') is a traditional and popular type of sushi roll that's fun and easy to make at home, using Yutaka's range of sushi ingredients. 1 Place a sheet of Yutaka Sushi Nori, rough side up, onto a Yutaka Bamboo Sushi Rolling Mat. Wet your hands and spread approx. 200g of cooked, seasoned Yutaka Sushi Rice, evenly over the nori, leaving a 6cm gap at the top. 2 Make a wide groove across the middle of the rice. Spread a little wasabi along this groove to taste and place 4 types of delicious fillings along the centre, but be sparing to ensure ease of rolling. 3 Lift the nearest edge of the bamboo mat and carefully but firmly roll the nori and rice over the fillings by pulling the edge away from you. 4 Once rolled, apply firm pressure on the mat, over the entire roll to ensure it keeps its cylindrical shape. Check the edge of the nori is sealed. 5 Slice the roll into 8 pieces with a sharp, dampened knife for a cleaner slice. Serve with Yutaka Soy sauce, Wasabi Paste and Sushi Ginger. Use half of the sheet for hosomaki (thin rolls), temaki (cone shaped hand rolls) and uramaki (inside-out rolls). Cut the nori parallel to the lines on the nori.
