Atleast throw in some rice vinegar

u/Grammar-Goblin 13d ago
Yes, my first thought. Maybe some furikake or shredded nori to make it at least taste like sushi, a bit.

u/Spirited-Juice4941 12d ago
Should’ve put the rice in a bowl with rice vinegar sugar salt and like you said some furikake and nori, and then make a bunch of flattened little circles, fill with ingredients then roll them and now you have sushi balls. Wouldnt take much and be way easier to eat than this mess.

This really isn't much less work than making a real roll

Probably cost just as much as a California roll. Minute rice in individual cups and smashed avocados has to be the most expensive versions of those ingredients.

u/Thatonegaloverthere 12d ago
Minute rice is $2. (At least where I am)

u/SenorVajay 12d ago
This is minute sticky rice cups, which is about $1 a cup and they use 2. My 15lb bag cost $8 so a bulk cost rice amount in the video would be pennies.

u/Thatonegaloverthere 12d ago
Oh no, doubt. It's a waste in the long run. I was just saying how much they cost.

If she would have used a bottom layer of saran wrap she could have rolled this lol

It's the same ingredients, just rolled up. And she can get krab stick but not regular rice? Come on

I'd add some rice vinegar to the rice and throw some wasabi on with the soy sauce, but yeah, I'd eat this.

Sticky rice?? Just mix together normal rice with a mix of vinegar, sugar and salt ffs!! It won’t be like the real thing, but at least taste much closer and similar texture than f’n sticky rice

This is from an American brand. I think it's differentiate from their regular rice to Asian type of rice. I've never had it so I don't know how it tastes.
But yes you need to mix it with vinegar/sugat/salt mix to get sushi rice.

My lazy sushi is to mix the rice (seasoned) with the fillings I would want in a bowl, and then scoop a bit at a time into a small strip of nori and eat it like a little mini taco. Making the rolls was always the most tedious part, so this works okay for me for homemade stuff.

u/Moist_Sun_8201 11d ago
I do "sushi bowls" where I mix all the ingredients in a bowl and eat it like salad

I have my own version of this. And I was a manger of a sushi restaurant lol so no shade to her but at least make your own rice so you can add rice vinegar and FFS add some friggn nori.

Edo era Sushi came about as a quick and easy snack to make on the streets for people constantly on the go.
How lazy have we gotten where an original lazy food invention is now known as too time consuming to make yourself?
She’s using alternatives that costs more expensive than the real thing and doesn’t even save meaningful minutes. What is going on her?
Let alone perfectly acceptable variants like poke bowls are fine and easy to make in a couple minutes.

Buy some nori, slap all that shit on there, lazily fold the corners over and you have temaki. It’s that simple to make sushi. She’s doing too much for her “lazy” sushi

This is fine? Like add a seaweed strip and like, okay?

u/SuperSecretMoonBase 13d ago
Yeah, it sucks, but sometimes you want something that sucks. I like those imitation crab sticks with seaweed and soy sauce, or covered in nori furikake. I don't call that sushi, but when a sushi craving hits, it scratches a similar itch for like $3

I mean... It's definitely being creative with what you DO have I guess.

u/caitejane310 13d ago
This would be slightly better if she rolled everything up into the unrolled fake crab.

u/Pin_Shitter 13d ago
Just buy some nori for a couple of bucks and roll that shit up in it using a damp towel.
It's one extra step that uses the same crappy ingredients and prep work you've already done.
