Sushi Cucumber Boats
Sushi made simple with a satisfying cucumber crunch—what’s not to love?
Desired sushi seafood (cooked, raw, smoked)
English cucumbers
Cream cheese
Cooked rice
Mayo
Sriracha
Optional garnishes: green onion, sesame seeds, more sriracha
Slice cucumbers in half and scoop out the insides.
Spread cucumber boats with a thin layer of cream cheese (the glue that holds the rice). Pack down a thin layer of rice.
Chop desired seafood and mix with a spoonful of mayo and a splash of sriracha until creamy.
Top cucumber boats with seafood mixture and add optional garnishes. Enjoy!
Notes: You can omit rice if desired. Our preferred variation is using baked salmon (bake filets at 425°F for 15-20 minutes, depending on size, until internal temperature reaches 145°F using an instant read thermometer). You can sub sriracha for hot sauce.
