How to Make Vegan Sushi (California Rolls!) & Trying the Sushi BAZOOKA

[@hypnosisforhappiness]

You forgot to screw on the cap of the sushi bazooka after closing the bazooka. Then, when the cap is on, as you screw in the plunger, all the rice inside gets compressed and the roll is formed. I have used my sushi bazooka many times and it makes perfect rolls even without greasing. The only hard part is closing it because the hinges do come apart like it happened to you.

[@annatashaclyde4896]

Thanks for this recipe, I made the "crab salad" using the tofu only thing I added fresh lime, cayenne pepper and kelp flakes, onion and bell peppers to it and it was so good. Really enjoyed this one

[@welldonewit5129]

I for sure recommend seasoning the tofu and hearts of palm and adding those extra like a little jalapeno, carrot shreds, cucumber, I've had green pepper in a veggie roll, seaweed salad, asparagus, vegan cream cheese if you have one you like, a little wasabi and Sriracha vegan mayo drizzle on top. You don't have to do all of those bc I've for sure eaten seasoned sushi rice in nori alone rolls, but just know you can use any of those ingredients. I've even sliced king oyster mushrooms and seasoned them for the meat and it was so so good

[@cindyf.]

I love how brave you are to stand in front of a camera and experiment. I always have so much fun watching your videos.

[@Pops_Gambit]

Wow so needed this. Started a new job and they have a vegan sushi restaurant in the building and someone asked me how does that work. Now I can explain. Rose always coming in clutch. Rose what’s your favorite hair color you’ve had? I think you make them all look great

[@CheapLazyVegan]

awww thank you!!! they have a vegan sushi restaurant?! where you at?! hahha so jealous. My fave hair colour... it's hard to say! I love my red but I also LOVED green!

[@Pops_Gambit]

@@CheapLazyVegan NYC. My fave is Beyond Sushi. You get a lot for a good price and they do all kinds of stuff. Rice paper wraps, “chicken” satay, they make incredible hummus. I forgot the place at my new job but I’m at Hotel 32 and it’s within the hotel. Don’t remember the name. Yesterday was my first day.

Rose, watching you play with a new gadget is priceless! You always make my day, and inspire me with new recipe ideas. But, I think I'm going to keep hand rolling my sushi.

[@DawnykaH]

I LOVE sushi! My favourite is vegan tempura tofu, mango and avocado with a vegan 'unagi' sauce made with mirin, maple syrup and soy sauce. Sooooo good! You gotta try it!

[@laurenmilroy8024]

Thanks you for the idea of using a vegan unagi. Ungainly is my boyfriend favorite sushi roll and I never thought about trying a vegan option of it.

[@PenguinNinja45]

I have never thought to try a unagi sauce … hmm maybe I order sushi for tonight I do have mirin maple and soy

[@DawnykaH]

@@PenguinNinja45 So good. Sometimes we have it with vegan sriracha mayo too. Both sauces work well together too.

My 2 year old is obsessed with your videos! She calls you Ms Rose, comments on how yummy the food looks, and said that you’re “so pitty!” Which of course means pretty! 😂😍

[@susanguche]

I'm from Argentina, we also call it palmitos. One of our classic pizza toppings is: ham, cheese, roasted capsicum, hearts of palm and salsa golf on top (is mayo and ketchup mixed) it's so tasty!

[@Crochetbymindynh]

I have one of those. You definitely didn’t put enough rice in the first time. Pack each side level to the edge and end to end, then press the rod part to make a “well” and fill the well with whatever you want.

[@ambers.]

Also the cap comes with it for a reason, to compact the ingredients before pushing them out.

[@Colmbaz]

I loved everything about this! The food, the recommendations, the thought process in the middle of doing something being like “Is this what I’m supposed to be doing?”, the ACCENTS(!!!), and just your general energy and the joy you bring to your videos. Thank you, Rose, for another great video! ☺️

[@steffenderfreak1]

Cool recipe THX 😁 For the "doomed" ones, who live in Germany: For sushi you can use Milchreis(milk rice) , the plane 250g or 500g packs with nothing but the thick rice in it, not the instant stuff! This is a trick, I learned from a Korean friend, living in Berlin 😊

[@randynadeau8680]

I bought one and had a hard time too. You do have to put the cap on the open end and screw/push the sushi together to press. Then push it out onto the nori. I think it’s easier to just roll it. Lol. Love watching your videos.

[@cindyglover3755]

Yes!! More vegan sushi 🍱 please!!

[@joycecruz9158]

Brazilian here: I was ecstatic when you pulled out the hearts of palm - yes, palmitos! 😊 I love it - it’s so delicious! But hard to find here in Ireland as well - so definitely an expensive option. I can’t wait to go to Brazil again and eat all the palmitos, açaí, Vegan brigadeiros and vegan cheese bread I want! Thank you for another fun video!! 🥰

I’m Irish in Ireland. And I’ve tried to make vegan brigadeiro before but I don’t think I had the stirring method right. And I definitely want to make a vegan pão de queijo one day!

That's what I do also, making a roll is beyond me. 👍

[@lesamoore7762]

Lol love your videos and recipes. For the bazooka you’re supposed to cap the end then ‘screw’ it down to compact the roll. Then remove the end cap and push it onto the Nori.

[@karenbenavente1124]

Hi Rose, nope I sure wouldn’t but that crazy gadget lol way too cumbersome I can just wrap them myself by my hand they may not be beautiful but they’re still yummy 😂by the way you forgot the cucumber for the California roll😊

[@Smileysue74]

Thanks for the video, I'm totally going to try this but without the bazooka, lol. Btw, avocados are more affordable if you buy bags: "Small Hass Avocado, 5-6 Count Bag $2.48" When I was buying individually, I only got them if they were on sale for less than $1 each because it's a major disappointment when you get a bad one after spending a lot for it. Tbh I skipped over this video originally but then after watching a few others I came back to yours and saw that I was subscribed, there must have been a reason. Oh yeah, a few min into your video, I remembered why and it's because you are totally cute without being all conceited about it; you know those kind of people that are showing you a recipe but it's more about showing themselves? Well, that's not you. You rock! Thank you again.

[@jasmin822]

I think I will try the Tofu-California-Roll-version 😋 Once I've seen a video for a sushi recipe with fake salmon. The "salmon" was a mix of watermelon with Soja-Sauce.

[@leauphillips3563]

I love my bazooka and use it all time and I'm sure when you are not making it in front of a camera it will be easier. I think you will find it a good investment.

You have more patience than me with that bazooka - I literally would have thrown that thing in the trash

[@giiness508]

Hey Rose! I love trying your recipes. I have one of these from Kmart and the instructions say to lightly brush the inside of the bazooka with oil to prevent sticking, lay the nori on a bamboo sushi mat, then lay the bazooka on top

[@donnahogan1158]

You forgot to screw on the end cap. The rod will compact the rice stuff inside and make a delicious sushi. Remember, read directions FIRST.

[@theplantpoweredrunner1977]

@@CheapLazyVegan It took me a few tries at getting a method down but I don't make sushi without it. My main hack is spraying a super light coat of "spray oil" in the tube before putting you rice in, which helps it pop right out onto the nori sheet.

Your cute “avocado” accent sounds from New Zealand-England 😂❤

I’ve never tried the rice on the outside before and don’t buy seran wrap anymore but maybe someday I will give it a try without n see if it still works out.

[@77deebee77]

I love lucy vibes! Lol! How many times I snorted laughed!!!!

[@lynnhalabi1595]

There is a much easier way to do the one with the rice on the outside, just make your sushi roll as you normally would, and when its rolled up spread some rice on the saran wrap, put your sushi roll on the edge and then as you would with a normal sushi roll, roll it on.

[@MsTERRItorial]

This video was great! I made the tofu, but I have to use soy paper (seaweed allergy) so mine were a little fatter and more fragile. The HOP I'm going to make tomorrow, and I'll try to post to instagram. I love all your content, but definitely more sushi and kimbap videos can't hurt!! If you try any with spy paper I'd bs curious to your opinion 😁

[@yeettherich]

you’re the first person i’ve encountered that is also allergic to seaweed! really happy that soy paper exists lol

Would making the rice wider than the nori make it more likely to completely close?

I used the hearts of palm filling for rice balls instead since i don't know how to roll sushi lol xP

You were far too kind to the sushi bazooka people, giving it the benefit of the doubt. It looks like a nightmare to use.

[@lynnmoz0616]

I think you could chill for a bit before cutting then it should cut easier.

[@iamblessingwilliams]

Does the bazooka work only with rolling with nori ? Can’t it make a carlifonia roll with nori inside or no nori at all ?

[@Eisawithlove]

What brand tofu did you use? I've never seen one that large (and firm enough to grate) in my local grocery store.

It's the inside of a palmtree sprout, think of it like a leek but no onionyness & brined.

The bazooka takes some getting used to, but it makes decent rolls once you have the hang.

After trying both do you still recommend mixing the tofu and hearts of palm together before stuffing it into a roll? 👀

[@jbell9179]

[@joymontague251]

I love hearts of palm. I think though there is a vegan protest for using palm and palm oil taking away the gorillas or orangutan rain forest ? Will try the recipes. Bazooka is hilarious and I think too much work. Nori seems to be getting really thin? The Bazooka one with the breaks on outside of Nori sheet so the seams or whatever the serrated breaks are called ? can be easier to cut and the half sheets you are not cutting on the sheet seam breaks but across them I think?

The sushizooka seems like a terrible waste of plastic, a bamboo matt is easy for a total beginner and much better for the environment!

[@scarletserena]

Ya I agree. I made sushi for the first time ever a few months ago. I only watched one video and made beautiful sushi with just a bamboo mat. I made the nori on the inside version and the nori on the outside version. I don’t know who that contraption is for, it seems like such a hassle!

I have an Aya sushi maker (just a different brand of Sushi Bazooka contraption), but have never used it. Making sushi the traditional way uses less things that need to be cleaned after, and I am lazy. So I’ve just never tried using the Aya.
