'I'm kinda surprised just how much this looks and tastes like sushi rice. If you're a sushi lover like myself you know that sushi rice is a bit sticky and has a hint of rice wine vinegar to it which adds a nice sweetness and tang.
This recipe uses riced cauliflower and is seasoned in such a way that it tastes just like the real thing. The trick to this is to cook your cauliflower on the stovetop for a few minutes. If you simply steam your cauliflower in the microwave, like most people, you'll have bits of hard-ish cauliflower which doesn't do a good job of convincing anyone. Traditional white rice is soft and sushi rice is a bit on the stickier side. So I used some gelatin (shhh thats the secret) and a bit of cream cheese (who doesn't love cream cheese) to hold the cauliflower together. Add you choice of fillers, roll em up and there you have it. Keto style sushi, that is low carb and won't fall apart when you pick it up with chopsticks (I know because I tried)!
Directions:
If you are going to add the gelatin, follow the first 2 steps. Otherwise skip to step 3.
That's it! Allow the rice to cool before adding it on top of your Nori wrapper sheets. If the mixture is too hot, the nori will rip when you try to roll it. Happy eating!
