Chirashi Don Recipe 

Ingredients

  • 1 cup short-grain rice 
  • 4 ounces of sashimi grade fish of your choice: we used salmon, sea bream, tuna
  • 2 tablespoons ikura (fish roe)
  • Garnish with chopped green onions

Sushi Seasoning

  • 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Steps 

  1. Cook your rice according to package instructions.
  2. While your rice is cooking, make your sushi seasoning. Heat all ingredients in a saucepan until the sugar has dissolved and then set aside to cool.
  3. Mix cooked rice with sushi seasoning and let cool a few minutes before adding fish — you don’t want the heat of the rice to cook your fish.
  4. Cut your fish into 1 inch cubes.
  5. Add your fish to your rice.
  6. Top evenly with ikura.
  7. Garnish with green onions.
