ちらし寿司（chirashi sushi)
What kind of dish is chirashi sushi??
Chirashizushi to eat on auspicious days.
“Chirashi sushi” made with several ingredients. The key is to change the color, texture, and taste of the ingredients you use. Sashimi like salmon, sea bream, and tuna are often used instead of shrimp. Sometimes seasonal vegetables such as rape blossoms and bamboo shoots are added.
Many of the ingredients are simmered or pickled in sweet vinegar, so it is best to prepare them the day before. You can shorten the working time of the day.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
⋈*Preparation
Soak the dried shiitake mushrooms in water the day before to rehydrate. Dried shiitake mushrooms are used frequently, so I always put a small amount of them in water. You can also use shredded dried shiitake mushrooms if you are in a hurry.
➀Cut the carrots and dried shiitake mushrooms into thick strips.
② Put carrots, dried shiitake mushrooms, sugar, soy sauce and water in a pot and boil until the carrots are soft.
③ Slice the lotus root into 2 mm pieces and soak in water for a few minutes.
④ Mix with vinegar, sugar and salt and put in a heat resistant plate. Softly wrap and heat in the microwave for 1 minute.
⑤ Boil snow peas. Cut when cool.
⑥ Boil the shrimp in a pot with snow peas removed.
⑦ Put the rice and water in the rice cooker and cook.
⑧ Mix vinegar, sugar and salt and microwave for 30 seconds.
⑨ Mix sushi vinegar into warm, freshly cooked rice. Mix rice with sushi vinegar, carrots, shiitake mushrooms and lotus root.
Set aside 1/3 of the lotus root for decoration.
⑩ Place the rice on a plate and decorate with Kinshi-tamago, denbu, salmon roe, shrimp, lotus root and silk pods.
※This time, the kinshi tamago was cheaper, so I bought it. I usually fry the eggs into thin sheets and then cut them into strips.
MEMO
⋈*Denbu is a food made by steaming fish meat, loosening it into small pieces, and adding a sweet flavor to it.
⋈*Salmon roe(=ikura) is a food made by loosening salmon roe and pickling it in salt water.
⋈*Sushizu Products containing vinegar, sugar, and salt are sold at supermarkets so that anyone can easily make 酢飯 (rice mixed with vinegar). This is called “sushizu”.
