Info and tips for smoked salmon sushi boats

If you love sushi flavors but don’t want the hassle of rolling, these smoked salmon sushi boats are the perfect solution. They deliver all the classic sushi elements in a simple, approachable format that anyone can make at home.

If you’re not a fan of these toppings here are some other great options that you can mix and match:

• meat options: spicy tuna, imitation crab, cooked shrimp, tofu, cooked salmon
• topping options: mango, shredded carrots, jalapenos, radishes, pickled onions, crispy onions

When making sushi boats try to scoop out as much cucumber as possible so that you can fit as much fillings as possible. I find these best served fresh, but you can prep the components ahead of time. Cook and season the rice up to a few hours in advance and store it covered at room temperature. Slice toppings just before assembling to keep everything fresh and vibrant.

Equipment

I love to serve the sushi boats on a pretty Checkered Cutting Board.
