Ark Shell Filaments

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 ark shell filaments (about 1/3 oz., 10 g. net each)
  • About 1 2/5 oz. (40 g.) sushi rice
  • Dash of wasabi

DIRECTIONS:

  • Cut off adductor at the base of filament.
  • Entwine filaments to form rectangle topping.
  • Dip both hands into vinegared water (water:vinegar = 3:1) Take some rice (about 2/3 oz., 20 g.) in right fingers and hold gently. Take filaments in left hand, place a dab of wasabi in center.
  • Lay the rice ball on fish, press down lightly with right forefinger. This is to make the rice cling to filaments.
  • Holding sushi between right fingers, curl left fingers over to right sushi so that fish is on top. Press sides firmly.
  • Shape sushi by pressing top with right fingers, far end with left thumb. Turn around to shape the other end. Check shape again.
