Vegan sushi is a must Summer a must. I’m still waiting for the real summer, because we haven’t had such a really nice balmy night yet. Our fire basket is still there, waiting to be used for the first time. This weekend we were in the backyard having a barbecue when we got hit with a downpour. I can’t complain because I had just finished my last bite of the Beyond Meat Burger. Pack everything back up and back into the house. They are luxury problems, but I really wouldn’t mind a nice balmy evening on the terrace. They always say that hope dies last, and that certainly doesn’t just apply to the balmy summer evening.

Making sushi is actually not that hard and I find the most challenging part is actually getting the roll right. This sounds simple, but in practice it often looks different. Roll forward with light pressure, tight enough that everything holds together. On the other hand, do not tighten too much, otherwise everything will fall out again at the front. It takes a a little flair but at the latest after two or three attempts the whole thing sits.
The first and most important step is cooking sushi Rice . First boil, then let swell and ready is the base. Then it’s on to the vegetable chopping. Here(almost) everything is allowed:
- Cucumber
- Zucchini
- Carrot
- Avocado
- Kohlrabi
- Paprika
- Fried green asparagus
- Spring onion
- Leafy vegetables
- Mango
- Carrot-salmon
- Tofu
Feel free to be creative here and write me below in the comments what your favorite sushi ingredients are. While we’re at it, here’s a little list of what basics you’ll need to make sushi:

Now it can also almost start with our vegan sushi. As I said, you can hardly do anything wrong, yet there are one or two pitfalls. The most important thing, from my point of view, is not to make the rolls too full and to really spread the rice evenly. If you keep these two points in mind, you’re already on the home stretch. Always use a sharp knife when cutting the rolls, otherwise you will virtually squeeze the rolls together and not get a nice result. I also always wet the knife before cutting, so it’s even easier.
TIP: Plan a little extra time for preparation for sushi. It is a simple dish, but rolling it takes a little time and practice. If you’re already a sushi roll pro, feel free to skip these lines.
