sushi
Featuring Pure Maple Syrup
4 portions

Ingredients

  • 300g sushi rice
  • 140g firm tofu
  • 100ml maple vinegar 
  • 2 tsp blue spirulina 
  • 1-2 tsp beetroot powder 
  • 1-2 tsp turmeric 
  • Fillings of choice i.e peppers and cucumbers chopped in strips 
  • 2-3 seaweed sheets 

Method

  1. Wash and cook the sushi rice as per your packet instructions, drain and place in a bowl to cool. 
  2. Add the maple vinegar to the rice. 
  3. Divide the mixture into 5 parts in separate bowls to make each colour. 
  4. Cut the drained and pressed tofu in strips and lightly fry on medium heat for 5 mins, or until lightly browned. Place aside with the rest of your fillings.
  5. Add in the powders for each colour into each separate bowl: For orange, add 1 tsp turmeric and 1 tsp beetroot powder (add 1-2 tsp extra vinegar if needed). For blue, add 1 tsp blue spirulina; for pink add 1 tsp beetroot powder; for green, add ½ – 1 tsp blue spirulina with 1 tsp turmeric powder. 
  6. Cover a bamboo roller with clingfilm and add a sheet of seaweed over it. 
  7. Place strips of rice over the seaweed until you’ve got some colours combos and top with your fillings, lengthways. Leave a little space of seaweed on the edge so you can seal it. 
  8. Roll the sushi and wet the edge you saved with a bit of water to make it seal. 
  9. With a sharp, damp knife slice your rolls to reveal your superfood rainbow colour combinations.

More about maple

The colour and flavour of maple syrup changes in subtle ways during the seasonal harvest

At the start of the sugaring season, the syrup is generally clear, with a light, sweet taste. It becomes darker with a caramelised flavour as the season progresses throughout the spring.

An unopened can of maple syrup keeps for many years

Once the can is opened, syrup should be kept in an airtight container in a cool place.

Maple spread doesn't contain any butter or dairy products

Like all 100% pure maple products, maple spread comes from the sap of the maple tree — that’s all.
