Tsum Tsum Sushi Rolls! 1041250A-50CB-495F-92CC-948EC6414141One of my new year resolutions is to give my  blog greater attention and more love. After my leg injury last year, it has been rather difficult getting back my mojo to blog regularly – an affair that I used to do almost daily.

So starting today, I will be sharing many of the postings that I have made but had not the chance to post them here. I have been posting much more regularly on my Instagram than my blog over the past one year :P.

Many of you would know that I enjoy making decorative sushi rolls, also known as kazarimaki sushi. My second cookbook ‘ Kawaii Deco Sushi’ was dedicated solely to recipes for decorative sushi rolls.

I also like to create Disney characters in my sushi rolls. Especially Tsum Tsum characters.

Being cute and roundish in shape – making them easier to be replicated in sushi rolls.

To start the week, let us enjoy some lovely Disney Tsum Tsum Sushi. I cannot decide which ones I like better, so here a compilation of some of the Tsum Tsum sushi I made.

Frozen series~~~ Elsa the Snow Queen, Anna and of course, the adorable Olaf.

We have good old Winnie the Pooh and friends!

Here is Mickey and Minnie together with Donald and Daffy. 

And not forgetting the Disney princesses – Tinkerbell, Snow White and Sleeping Beauty.

Ever since I started my journey in bento making, I remained very thankful to the various opportunities I have received.

So imagine my excitement when I was invited to Tokyo to teach a kazarimaki sushi  workshop. Thank you Japan Awaits for hosting me.

I hope I will have the chance to teach in Tokyo again soon.

Here are some photos from the workshop from one of the sessions. It was so much fun teaching everyone – thank you so much for coming.

More cute sushi for you. This time the character is Miffy, made using quail eggs.

I love using these quail eggs for bento and foodart as they are so versatile and awesome for making cute food. Aside from bunny quail eggs, you can also make them into teddy bears (see my earlier post) and kitty cats (see my earlier post).

Sorry for being a little behind in updating my blog as recently things have been really busy. But I am feeling quite recharged now after my 2 weeks trip back to Japan.

Japan during Autumn is amazing. I love the food, the weather and of course all the kawaii food and things.

More travel updates on my blog coming soon and latergrams on my Instagram account.

Many have asked me to make more of my cute sushi, so this time I decided on Miffy sushi.

Partly because I was a little lazy to colour the eggs and wanted a ‘white’ colour character.

I made my own sushi rice, ebi prawns and shape the sushi and small maki roll.

The Miffy sushi characters were made from hard boiled quail eggs, the ears from hanpen (a type of Japanese fishcake) and the features using sushi seaweed.

Sushi board is from Bento & Co. It comes in a set of wood board, soy dish and chopsticks (non-miffy). I got 4 sets and they are perfect for hosting or family usage.

Teddy Bear Sushi for you today!

I received some delicious koshihikari japanese rice from Thinkrice.sg and decided to make these Teddy Bear sushi. Best way to enjoy excellent Japanese rice.

Nothing beats these freshly milled Japanese rice. Thinkrice.sg is currently the only seller in Singapore that mills the rice upon order and ensure that they are delivered and sold within 2 weeks of the milling. Plus they are competitive in pricing and more value for money as compared to the supermarkets.

Personally my favourite is their Uonuma Koshihikari rice, voted as the most popular rice in Japan. 

 

Located in the south of Niigata Prefecture, Uonuma region is known for its pristine water and dramatic weather changes that is excellent for producing the best Japanese rice.

Each rice grain plump, whole, and smooth.

Have a look behind the scenes at their factory here.

Talking about Japan…4 more days before I head back to Japan~~~ so super excited!

I have a few more ideas and hope to make and post them before I leave. Will be in Japan for over 2 weeks, do stay tuned to my Instagram for updates on my Japan travelogue and cute food (I have some cute food in my archive to post!).

For today’s Teddy Bear Sushi, it was made from hard boiled quail eggs, smoked salmon and sushi rice.

The details of the teddy bear was added on using sushi seaweed.

To colour the eggs, I seasoned the eggs in a soy mixture of dashi, soy sauce, sugar, mirin and sake. Very yummy. Similar to how I season my ramen eggs when I made noodles.

Plated them on my sushi board set from Bento & Co.

I use this quite a fair bit, am sure some of you would have noticed by now. I like the size and it is perfect for hosting (I actually bought 4 of them ;P).

Now which Teddy Bear Sushi do you like the most?

The sleeping one, the butt up one or the one rolled up in a maki roll? hahhah.

I had fun conceptualising and making these kawaii teddy bear sushi!

Decided to sleep in to catch up on my Zzz hours.

So I woke up thinking to myself, what would be a great simple but cute meal?

Made these Quail Egg Kitty Sushi.Don’t they just look like cute little kitties sitting on top (and one lying down) on sushi rice?

And I also want to apologise for the lack of regular blog postings lately. Been really tied up with another project… my next cookbook. Yes! You heard that right :) I will be launching a brand new book next year, more details will follow up soon. Stay tuned.

Back to these Kitty Sushi!To make each kitty, I used 2 hard boiled quail eggs.

The ears, tail, limbs were made from kamaboko (Japanese fish cake). And the details added on using sushi seaweed.

I wish I have some Ikura to top on top of them, I think that will look darn cute :P

Couldn’t resist not posting another view of my quail egg Kitty Sushi~~!

To keep the parts together, I used some deep fried thin pasta sticks. You can also use raw pasta sticks – After some time they will absorb the moisture in the food and soften, and be edible.

Hopefully I will have time to remake this again and maybe this time with ikura :P

Bought the sushi board from Bento & Co.

And the chopsticks were a gift from Yellow Studio, a bento store on Rakuten Japan.

Have a awesome Friday~~ MEOWWWWW

Miffy Sushi Bento (6)Miffy Sushi for you? A 30mins creation to wrap up the week.

It has been a crazy work week for me and late nights. So really glad that the weekend is finally approaching, having said that, am still working over the weekend.

Gambatte ne~~

This year has been a crazy year. both for my bento stuff and work, I guess it is sort of a good problem? But am feeling rather burnt out.

Need to take stock and recharge soon.

Miffy Sushi Bento (3) Only reached home past eleven last night so with a lack of sleep, I figured that I could only muster enough energy to make something really simple.

Somehow the idea of making these Miffy Sushi ‘rice-cream’ pops came into my mind.

I love Miffy as the character is not complicated. No weird colours or very small details required. You basically just need Japanese rice and seaweed.

You can make Miffy with either Japanese rice, or sushi rice depending on your personal preference.

To add the pink cheeks, I dab on some pink gel colours. Its as simple as that. Miffy Sushi Bento (4)

 

Paired my Miffy Sushi with some buffalo drumlets, side salad of mizuna vegetables and some colorful sausages.

I mentioned about these sausages in my earlier post. Yes, they are indeed green and orange in colour. They also come in yellow. Super cute right?

The sushi wooden board is from Bento&co.

I hope you are having a much better week than me~

Cheers! and thanks always for reading my blog. Can’t tell you how much it means to me for your support. :)

PomPomPurin Sushi (5) Pom Pom Purin Sushi

Sharing another creation that I made over the weekend. Same reason why I made Winnie the Pooh. I had so much leftover rice from teaching bento workshop so had to find a way to use the rice.

Deco sushi was one good way. Yummy to eat and cute.

Since the rice I had was yellow (was teaching minions bento workshop), so I decided to could make PomPomPurin Sushi!

Deco sushi or known as kazarimakisushi in Japanese is something that I picked up since end 2012. Subsequently after my instructor certification examination in Japan, I continued to make more deco sushi and kawaii sushi designs, and coming up with my own original designs.

This PomPomPurin is definitely an original design based on the popular Sanrio character. PomPomPurin Sushi (2)

If you are living outside Japan, this might not be very familiar to you. But PomPomPurin actually won the most popular character in the recent voting conducted by Sanrio for their magazine Strawberry News.

Making deco sushi is definitely very fun and the techniques can be picked up through my recently launched cookbook ‘Kawaii Deco Sushi‘.

Once you master the basic recipes and techniques, there are just so many ways and possibilities you can make Deco Sushi!

PomPomPurin Sushi (4)The dark brown portions are actually kanpyo, which are seasoned gourd strips. Used that to make the eyes, nose and PomPomPurin’s signature beret.

For kanpyo i like the ones sold at Cold Storage Japanese section. They are value of money and the kanpyo strips are longer and darker in tone. Better for sushi making.

To colour the rice yellow, you can mix in egg yolk, or yellow furikake too.

PomPomPurin Sushi (1)Paired the PomPomPurin sushi with some baked salmon fillet and a side salad.

So easy and yummy!

Minions Deco Sushi (3)Minions Deco Sushi!

Stuart! Why are you in my lunch box? hahahahh

I even placed my guitar chopstick rest in the bento box, to match the theme. Everyone remembers Stuart and his guitar (just like Bob and his teddy Tim).

Minions Deco Sushi has been on my to-do list for the longest time. So glad I did it!

Minions fever over yet? I certainly hope not~ And hope you have fun checking out this cute Minions Deco Sushi creation.

It has been about 2 years since my certification with the Tokyo Sushi Academy for their Japan Sushi Instructor Association.

Since then, it has been a fulfilling journey, from learning how to make deco sushi rolls (known as kazarimakisushi in Japanese) to taking the instructor exams, creating my own original recipes like this one, and writing my own deco sushi cookbook (titled Kawaii Deco Sushi) that was published just less than 2 months back.

Thank you for the support always :)

For this Minions Deco Sushi, lets take a look at the sushi roll before cutting it up!

Divided the sushi roll into four equal pieces.

What is missing are the eyes and mouth which I added using some seaweed cut freehand.

Packed two of them into my bento box with some vegetables and pan seared salmon fillet.

While these two were passed to a friend of mine who is a Minion fanatic. haha. I hope she likes them.

If you are also keen on making deco sushi, remember to check out my cookbook okie!

Promise you that this cookbook covers all the basic techniques with visual illustrations for each of the recipe steps! It will be fun!

 

Now its time to eat Stuart :P haha

Deco sushi, or better known as kazarimakisushi in Japanese is great for bento, parties and even picnics.

Don’t worry if you are a beginner too. I have included good solid chapters of sushi techniques and basics in the book, followed by fully illustrated recipes for you to follow.

Totoro Sushi (1)Totoro Sushi!

I remember first making Totoro deco sushi (kazarimaki sushi) sometime ago in 2013. The design and arrangement/use of ingredients were slightly different from what I made today. 

This time round, I was able shape and design the whole deco sushi to include Totoro’s eyes and ears in the roll too.

Was really fun to make the Totoro sushi. 

The grey portion of the sushi rice was made by mixing sushi rice with ground black sesame.

The whites of the eyes are actually 2 cheese sausages that I added into the sushi roll.

And the other details of Totoro like the eyes, whiskers and lines were cut from seaweed. 

A simple meal of Totoro deco sushi and miso baked salmon fillet.

Healthy and very delicous~ miso and salmon goes well together.

Drink a cup of hot tea as you enjoy this sushi will be so awesome too~

While this Totoro Sushi is not in my upcoming new cookbook, there will be some 30 other deco sushi recipes, Stay tuned to more updates on my blog and social media.

And a glimpse of my new cookbook here.
