INSTRUCTIONS

GARNISH
In a large mixing bowl, combine soba noodles, scallions, soy sauce, rice
wine vinegar, wasabi oil, and pickled ginger. Taste for seasoning. On a
sushi mat, place one sheet of nori, shiny side down. On the bottom third of
the nori, place a thin layer of the noodle mixture. Place some cucumber and
peppers on top. Roll tightly. Moisten the top edge of the nori with water
to seal the sushi roll closed.
WASABI OIL
1/4 cup wasabi powder 1/2 tablespoon sugar 1/2 tablespoon mirin Cold water
1/4    cup canola oil
In a bowl, combine wasabi powder, sugar and mirin. Slowly whisk in water
until a thin paste is achieved. Quickly whisk in oil. A puree consistency
is ideal.
SOY SYRUP
1 cup thin soy sauce 1/2 cup freshly squeezed orange juice 1/4 cup brown
sugar
In a saucepan combine soy sauce, orange juice, and brown sugar. Reduce
until an almost syrupy consistency is achieved. Let cool. As it cools, the
syrup will thicken.
Slice and arrange sushi on a white platter. Drizzle it with wasabi oil and
soy syrup. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds.
Yield: 8 to 10 servings

A Message from our Provider:

“A thankful heart is one of the primary identifying characteristics of a believer. It stands in stark contrast to pride, selfishness, and worry. And it helps fortify the believer’s trust in the Lord and reliance of His provision, even in the toughest times. No matter how choppy the seas become, a believer’s heart is buoyed by constant praise and gratefulness to the Lord. #John MacArthur”
