Love sushi but cannot be bothered with all the fiddle? This salad is for you. And oh. That. Dressing. Good on loads of other things. Try and see!
Love sushi? Hate rolling it? (I am right there with you.) As much fun as rolling sushi can be on a day when you have the patience and time for it, this salad gives you the full sushi experience, but in bulk and without the fiddle. Couldn’t really ask for more than that, am I right? You’re welcome.
