Nori sheets specifically roasted for use in sushi hand rolls, known as temaki.

Temaki, or hand rolled sushi, is a type of sushi where the ingredients are rolled into a cone shape using a sheet of nori (seaweed). Unlike traditional sushi, which is often formed into precise shapes with a sushi mat or by hand, temaki is designed to be rolled by hand and eaten immediately.

Balance and Umami

Temaki is a balance of salty (from the nori), sour (from the sushi rice) and savoury (from the fish or seafood), with plenty of umami from the seaweed and sushi rice vinegar.

The quality of the nori is essential for holding the roll together and providing the satisfyingly crisp texture. It is roasted to enhance its flavour, giving it a crisp texture and a lightly toasted, umami-rich taste.

Fukui nori is highly regarded for its quality, their products are sought after by sushi enthusiasts and professional chefs.

Sushi Rice

Sushi rice is a key component of sushi, made from short-grain Japanese rice, distinct for its sticky texture, which allows it to hold together when shaping sushi. Proper preparation is crucial, as the rice needs to be slightly firm but sticky enough to form the sushi rolls or nigiri without falling apart.

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Once opened refrigerate and use within 1 week.

How to make temaki sushi rolls

Ingredients

Nori: A sheet of roasted seaweed forms the outer layer of the roll.

Sushi Rice: The filling starts with a base of seasoned cooked rice, which has been mixed with vinegar, sugar, and salt or a ready-made seasoned vinegar. Could link to one of ours?

Fillings can include:

Raw fish: Tuna (maguro), salmon, yellowtail (hamachi) or other sashimi grade fish.

Vegetables: Cucumber, avocado, pickled daikon radish, pickled ginger or shiso leaves.

Other seafood: Shrimp (ebi), crab (kani) or fish roe (ikura).

Toppings: May include sesame seeds, spicy mayo, soy sauce or wasabi for additional flavour.

Method

Temaki is made by taking a rectangular sheet of nori and placing sushi rice on one side.

Then, the fillings are placed on top of the rice. The nori is rolled into a cone by hand, starting at one corner and rolling toward the other to form a conical shape that’s easy to hold.

Serving

Temaki is typically made fresh and served individually, unlike sushi rolls (maki) that are cut into pieces, however it's also popular for parties, where guests can assemble and hand roll sushi themselves with the different ingredients provided on the table.
