The most common traditional Inarizushi is a very simple rice dish that is basically the oval-shaped or triangle-shaped sushi rice ball wrapped in a seasoned aburaage (deep-fried thin tofu). Sometimes the sushi rice contains roasted sesame seeds, cooked vegetables and/or hijiki seaweed. The amount of each ingredient varies and really depends on how sweet, salty and seasoned you like it. I've shared three variations below:

Filling the Tofu: When filling the fried tofu pouches, it’s easier if the sushi rice is shaped like a bale, similar to nigirizushi. If you use too much force when shaping the rice, it will become too hard, and if it is too soft, it will fall apart when you are eating it. It is important to use the same degree of force as when making rice balls. Essentially press the rice together until it holds its shape, but avoid crushing the rice or pressing too hard. Make it a sushi party! Serve them on a plate with spicy tuna rolls, California rolls, and different flavors of onigiri.If you freeze them, they will be able to stay in the freezer for a month. When making inari sushi, aburaage is simmered in sweet soy sauce. Once the sauce has evaporated, return to a low heat and cook until the Aburaage absorbs most of the liquid. How Do I Use Store Bought Inari Age? I often find the store-bought Inari Age too sweet to my liking, so I like making my own. It is very simple and only takes 15 minutes!

Inari sushi is a type of sushi with rice balls wrapped in ‘Aburaage’ deep-fried tofu pouches. Known as Inarizushi in Japan this sushi is a little different. “Inari” the name, is derived from the “Inari” Shrine. For an offering to the shinto god Inari, this sushi was used. Because the favourite food of the Shinto god’ messenger fox is said to be Aburaage. The word inari means to carry rice and the word sushi ( 酸し) means rice that’s been mixed with vinegar ( su is vinegar in Japanese). Inari Sushi Filling Furikake: Furikake is a sweet and savory Japanese seasoning made specifically to put on cooked rice. When mixed into sushi rice, it lends an additional layer of flavor to the inari sushi. With these diverse fillings, inari sushi can be adapted to a wide range of taste preferences in modern days, while still upholding the essence of the traditional dish. However, the recipe presented in this article shows how to make traditional inari sushi. Creative Toppings IdeasA: Yes of course. I sometimes add roasted white sesame seeds into the sushi rice. Make the sushi rice and when you add sushi vinegar, also add sesame seeds. In Australia, you can buy upside down Inari sushi topped with mayo and crab meat or seaweed. Let your imagination run wild and be creative! According to tradition, Inari has been worshiped since a shrine was built on Inari Mountain in 711 AD. That said, there is a school of thought that claims her worship began sometime in the late fifth century. After two minutes, remove the aburaage from the boiling water and cool them on the side. At this point, you may want to lightly press the aburaage in a tofu press to remove any excess water before you prepare your sushi rolls.
