What you need:
1 piece leftover salmon fillet (about 3 oz), skin removed
3/4 cup cooled cooked Carolina® Sushi Rice
2 tsp mayonnaise
2 tsp soy sauce
2 tsp sriracha hot sauce
1 sheet crispy nori (seaweed)

Spread salmon mixture onto nori sheet in an even layer, leaving 1/2-inch border. Arrange cucumber sticks on bottom portion of rice. Starting from the long side, tightly roll into a log. Cut roll into 10 portions, each about 1/2 inch thick.
Tip: You can even substitute cucumber with avocado slices, red pepper slices or carrot sticks!

Ice Cube Hack
Why add the ice cube just to throw it out 1 minute later? The ice and parchment covering will rehydrate your grains by creating steam. This steaming method ensures you’ll get the same fluffy consistency of freshly-made rice.
Leftover Salmon
After making our Mango & Curry Salmon Stacks or another one of your favorite tasty seafood dishes, you may find yourself with some extra cooked salmon. When properly stored, it can stay in the fridge for about 3-4 days. When the consistency is slimy, rather than flakey, it’s mostly likely gone bad. In other words, if your leftover filet isn’t flaking, it’s time to toss it.
Mayonnaise Variations
Find out what all the fuss is about – there’s no going back once you’ve tasted just how creamy Japanese mayo is! What makes Kewpie so delicious? This mayonnaise variety contains only the yolks — rather than the whole egg — giving this sauce that irresistible velvety texture. Now that you’ve branched out from traditional mayonnaise, why stop now? Try some other mouthwatering variations! This Beet “Poke” Bowl has a sriracha mayonnaise drizzle – simple and spicy.
