Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 cups sushi rice
2 teaspoons matcha (green tea powder)
Kosher salt
10 sheets roasted seaweed snacks (one 0.18-ounce package)
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
3 tablespoons chopped pickled ginger
2 scallions, thinly sliced (white and green parts separated)
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Put the rice in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse under cold water, stirring with your hand, until the water runs clear. Shake well to remove as much water as possible. Set the sieve over a bowl to continue draining, 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the rice to a medium saucepan and whisk in 1 3/4 cups water, the matcha and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then immediately reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the seaweed snacks into matchsticks with kitchen shears. Mix the vinegar and sugar in a small bowl until dissolved.
  • Fluff the rice and gently fold in the vinegar-sugar mixture, pickled ginger, scallion whites, sesame oil, 2 teaspoons sesame seeds and salt to taste. Divide among bowls and top with the seaweed snacks, scallion greens and remaining 1 teaspoon sesame seeds.

GARNISHED RICE WITH GREEN TEA (OCHA-ZUKE)



Garnished Rice With Green Tea (Ocha-Zuke) image

A really interesting use for green tea and a great way to use up leftovers. A classic light meal or snack in Japan. Typically, this is accompanied by an assortment of bright, crisp pickles (not the American kind!). From "At Home with Japanese Cooking" by Elizabeth Andoh.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups cooked rice (leftovers are perfect)
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 sheet nori (sheets of seaweed like sushi are typically wrapped in)
1 steamed chicken breasts (either are fine or whatever other leftovers you'd like to use) (optional) or 1 slice grilled salmon (either are fine or whatever other leftovers you'd like to use) (optional)
2 -3 tablespoons chopped coriander
1/4 teaspoon wasabi or 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
2 cups green tea (hot and freshly brewed)

Steps:

  • Divide the rice into 4 deep bowls.
  • Dry roast the sesame seeds by stirring them over medium heat in a skillet until golden.
  • You may want to crush them slightly with a mortar once toasted, but this is not completely necessary.
  • Dry roast the nori by waving it back and forth over direct medium heat for about 1 minute (this is typically done just over the flame of a gas stove and I really recommend you use tongs to do this, not just your fingers!) Fold and tear the sheet into 20 small rectangles and place 5 rectangles in each bowl.
  • Add chunks of chicken or salmon if desired.
  • Garnish each portion with corriander and wasabi or ginger.
  • Pour 1/2 cup tea over each bowl and serve immediately.
