Directions:
((Rice))
White Layer:
Add the Sushi vinegar (2 tbsp.) while the rice (200g) is still hot and slice through the rice using a rice paddle to separate the grains.
Green Layer:
Add the Sushi vinegar (1 tbsp.) and 1 tsp. Aonori (green laver) while the rice (100g) is still hot and slice through the rice using a rice paddle to separate the grains.
Red Layer:
Mix 1 package of Red Deco Furi (rice seasoning) while the rice (100g) is still hot and slice through the rice using a rice paddle to separate the grains.
((Mashed Potato))
Place potato flakes in a bowl. Add hot water and mix well. You can add, Sushi vinegar or butter, salt and pepper to taste.
((Sushi Cake))
Wet the cake pan (or line with plastic wrap). Place the Sushi rice and press down flat with a rice paddle or a spoon. Make sure the first layer is white (as a cream). Then place red, white, and green, one after another and flatten as well. Turn the cake pan upside down onto a plate to remove the rice.
((Toppings))
Put the mashed potato in a piping bag with a star tip, pipe out on the Sushi cake. Garnish with grape tomatoes, smoked salmon, and salmon roe. Finish with Christmas Nori Art on sliced cheese. Simple Christmas cake toppers are absolutely gorgeous. Be creative and decorate the Sushi cake.
