My son’s favorite thing in the world (after Halo), is sushi. He could eat it all day if he had his way. But sushi is not cheap! He’s always asking me to make it from scratch, but I just assumed it would be too complicated. Turns out making sushi yourself isn’t that complicated at all. So excited to share this easy homemade sushi roll recipe using one of the goodies that I received from Qualifirst Foods LTD.
Cooking With Kids: Easy Homemade Sushi Roll Recipe #QualifirstFoods
One of the first items that I use from my Qualifirst Foods package is the roasted seaweed sushi sheets (Nori). Whenever I’m going to try making something for the first time, I search Pinterest ideas. I’ve had a few (too many) Pinterest fails but like an addict, I keep going back.
Since I was going to be slaving over this sushi for my son, I made him help out. After searching for a few minutes (hours), I decided to go with the recipe I found on Natasha’s Kitchen blog. Her instructions were simple enough for a sushi noob like me.
This what I learned from making homemade sushi rolls:
- The secret to the best sushi rolls is the sushi vinegar. After making a batch of the homemade sushi rolls, I felt like a total pro! The sushi lover (my son) gave me a big thumbs up and requested that we make sushi more often.
- Get a rice cooker (Amazon link). Trust me! Saves you from having to throw away a pot of burnt rice. True story.
- Roasted seaweed is so good. I had to stop myself from eating it all.
- Cleaning up after making sushi with a kid sucks! A lot.
- Mayo + Sriracha sauce = Liquid Gold!

I have never thought to try to make sushi at home! I love that you had him help you make the sushi.

Great now I’m craving sushi!! I loved this post. It’s so cute that your son likes making sushi, how awesome! Making it is hard, so kudos to him (and you too!) Your tips are helpful, I’ll definitely keep this blog post in mind the next time I want to make some sushi at home!
Homemade sushi is always welcome in my book! It’s so nice to see that the kids are able to help out as well! Thanks for the super easy recipe!
This would be as much fun for me as it would be for them. I can hardly wait to try!

I love roasted seaweed and always find myself snacking on it. I would love to make sushi rolls with my daughter. I think she’d have fun doing this!
I have never made my own sushi! Sounds pretty yummy though so I really should make it!
Wow, this looks really good. I want to try this for my son, I am so sure that he is going to love it.
I totally need to do this with my kids. They LOVE sushi, and we’ve never made it at home.

Great job kids! Sushi making is definitely one of my more popular (and messier) classes with kids and adults alike! 5 stars go to you!
Ooh I would love to make homemade veggie sushi with cucumber and avocado. That would be perfect.

I’m not crazy about eating sushi, but I am crazy about making it. Fun to make and cool looking.
My husband loves sushi but I’m not a fan. I’ve never thought of making my own though!

My kids love sushi! I used to work as a sushi chef for 3 years 🙂 My favorite : spicy tuna
