Sushi Bundt Cake

2/13/2024

 
Sushi Bundt Cake

This is a fun, easy to make, colorful, and healthy dish. My daughter and I enjoyed putting together this sushi "cake" almost as much as we enjoyed eating it!

INGREDIENTS:
•   1.5 cup uncooked calrose rice (made in rice cooker or cooked to package instructions).
•   3 tbsp rice vinegar.
•   1 tbsp sugar.
•   2 tbsp black sesame seeds.
•   pinch of salt.
•   7 oz bluefin tuna.
•   7 oz salmon.
•   1/4 cup + 1 tbsp japanese mayo.
•   3 tbsp sriracha.
•   2 tsp tamari (plus more for the sauce).
•   2 serranos (one sliced and one finely chopped).
•   3 scallions (chopped, separate white and green part).
•   2 tsp sesame oil.
•   1 english cucumber (thinly sliced).
•   2 avocados (sliced).
•   1/2 orange.
•   1/2 lemon.
•   shichimi togarashi.
•   toasted nori.


DIRECTIONS: 
1. Mix the rice vinegar, sugar and pinch of salt. Add it to your cooked rice with the sesame seeds and let completely cool. Preferably overnight.
2. Chop the salmon and tuna. Add to a bowl with the japanese mayo, sriracha, sesame oil, tamari and green part of the scallions.
3. Assemble the bundt: starting with the rice on the bottom, add in cucumber, spicy tuna mixture and avocado, press in the rest of the rice. Using a plate, flip it over.
4. Mix the white part of scallions, chopped serranos, orange and lemon juice. Add tamari to taste.
5. Top the bundt with nori pieces, togarashi and serrano slices.

Healthy Granola with Olive Oil

1/30/2024

 
You can eat this delicious granola with milk, kefir, on top of yogurt, or on overnight oats (recipe here). It gives a satisfying crunch.

Ingredients:
  • 4  cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 1/4 cups raw pecans, left whole or coarsely chopped
  • 1 cup hulled raw pumpkin seeds
  • 1 cup hulled raw sunflower seeds
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut chips
  • 3/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar or honey other. Both are delicious 😋 
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste

Directions:
  • Preheat the oven to 300°F. In a large bowl, mix the oats, pecans, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, coconut, maple syrup, oil, brown sugar or honey, and 1 teaspoon salt until well combined.
  • Spread the mixture in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, stirring every 10 to 15 minutes, for about 45 minutes total, until the granola is toasted.
  • Remove the granola from the oven; season with additional salt to taste. Let cool completely before serving.
  • Do ahead: can be made 1 month ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and store at room temperature.

These recipes are very similar - I used 4 c of oats and the dried fruits I had on hand. Make sure you add those after taking the tray out of the oven- fruits burns (I made that mistake). Sometimes I add 2/3 cups of tahini too!

​1 large round loaf
serves 12

Ingredients:
¼ cup ghee or regular butter 
¼ cup milk or milk alternative
¼ cup warm water (110 degrees)
3 cups all-purpose flour 
1 ¼ teaspoons active dry yeast 
½ teaspoon salt 
2 teaspoons anise seed  
¼ cup white sugar 
2 eggs, beaten 
2 teaspoons orange zest 
¼ cup white sugar 
¼ cup orange juice 
1 tablespoon orange zest 
2 tablespoons white sugar 

Instructions:
1. Heat the milk and the butter together in a medium saucepan, until the butter melts. Remove from the heat and add them warm water. The mixture should be around 110 degrees F

3. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic.

4. Place the dough into a lightly greased bowl cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size. This will take about 1 to 2 hours. Punch the dough down and shape it into a large round loaf with a round knob on top. Place dough onto a baking sheet, loosely cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until just about doubled in size.

5. Bake in a preheated 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) oven for about 35 to 45 minutes. Remove from oven let cool slightly then brush with glaze.

6.  To make glaze: In a small saucepan combine the 1/4 cup sugar, orange juice and orange zest. Bring to a boil over medium heat and boil for 2 minutes. Brush over top of bread while still warm. Sprinkle glazed bread with white sugar.

*substitute 1/2 teaspoon anise extract for the anise seeds.
