Temari Sushi for Doll Festival step by step

  1. Form half of the rice into an egg-shaped ball. [Set aside a finger-tip sized amount].
  2. Make 2. (You'll be squeezing it down later, so it's okay if it's still soft).
  3. Cut a long, thin piece of thin omelet out and wrap around a rice ball (with the right side on top)..
  4. Slice the top part of the smoked salmon horizontally (if you don't mind the bloody parts, you can use it as-is)..
  5. Wrap the salmon around the egg, making sure the egg peaks out a bit..
  6. Wrap around the remaining salmon in the back. When you've finished wrapping it, wrap in plastic wrap and let set..

  14. Stick in a piece of pasta..
  15. Stick 13 and 14 to the dolls' heads. (The pasta will soften by the time you eat it.).
