Sushi Rice Recipe
by Stephanie Rowat
Sushi rice is the heart and soul of great sushi. The combination of perfectly cooked rice and sushi vinegar creates a harmonious balance of flavors and textures that is essential to making authentic sushi.  Sushi rice is made from two components; cooked rice and sushi vinegar.  Short-grain, Japanese rice is the gold standard, but any rice can be used.  Sushi vinegar is a specific blend made from brown rice vinegar, mirin, sugar and salt.
The Best Vegan Ponzu Sauce Recipe
The Best Vegan Ponzu Sauce (Japanese Citrus Sauce)
by Stephanie Rowat

Ponzu sauce is a Japanese sauce frequently used as a dipping sauce or condiment for tempura, sashimi, gyoza or simple cold noodles.  Traditionally, ponzu sauce is made from shoyu or tamari (japanese soy sauces), mirin, rice vinegar, bonita flakes (katsuobushi), kombu (edible seaweed) and a healthy punch of citrus. Ponzu sauce is a terrific marinade, or salad dressing.  Ponzu sauce makes a wonderfully bright, citrus addition to a spring-time version of miso soup!
