King trumpet mushroom recipe

Slice the mushrooms into 8 even strips ~1/4 inch thick. Mix the marinated mushroom ingredients (except the mushrooms) in a bowl.

Heat your grill or grill pan over medium heat. Lightly oil. Cook until you get grill marks and the mushrooms soften, ~3 minutes per side, basting with the marinade.

Step by step grilled trumpet mushroom vegan sushi

Split the rice into 8 equal parts. With wet hands, press each part into the side wall of a rectangular container as shown in the photo or form with your fingers. Pack it in firmly so it comes out as one piece. Repeat 7 more times.

Top each rice rectangle with one piece of the cooked mushroom. Wrap each with one of the nori strips and enjoy!

Vegan sushi tips & notes

• Keep your hands very wet when working with the cooked sushi rice. Rice will stick to dry hands, but not wet hands.
• Make the rice an hour in advance so it has plenty of time to cool and you don’t feel rushed.
• Use a rectangular/square plastic, glass, or metal container to form the rice rectangles.
