We were supposed to go out for a special birthday lunch for our daughter on Wednesday but she has caught a cold (rapid COVID home test was negative) and we have postponed our lunch until next week. As a consolation John and I made our birthday girl a dinner that she really likes.

We have adapted a recipe from the NYTimes. We use plain white rice not sushi rice and we double the amount of sauce. The amount as listed just does not make enough for the three of us. We cook the salmon separately from the rice. Instead of nori as a garnish we use ebi furikake and we have added edamame as an element in our bowl. This is such a tasty dish!
