Sushi equipment and utensils can be purchased at most Japanese specialty stores and may also be found in some Asian supermarkets. However, I prefer the use of "Sushi kits". Most come with everything that you'll need to prepare and serve sushi. This week I would like to my favorite non-traditional sushi recipe in which I have prepared. Some other ingredients that I have used are raw and cooked seafood and/or vegetables. I hope that you will find that this recipe delicious and easy to prepare.
Smoked Salmon and Spinach Rolls
wasabi paste
10 strips of smoked salmon
2 cups of baby spinach leaves, stems removed

Using one nori sheet, cut in half-lengthwise, then trim bottom from each sheet (follow this procedure for all remaining sheets; position sheet on edge of mat (north edge), leaving spacee on each side of sheet; place a nori sheet lengthwise on bamboo rolling mat, shiny side down; with moist hands take a small amount of rice and place on nori sheet and spread evenly over nori; take a dab of wasabi paste and spread evenly across center of rice; place spinach leaves across rice; place salmon on top of spinach; hold salmon in place and roll in bamboo mat (rolling away from you) and continue rolling until roll is closed; repeat rolling process to make sure that roll is secured; slice finished roll in half and cut twice, yeilding six pieces; continue the above process for remaining nori sheets and ingredients.
