Tobiko nigiri is a classic sushi dish that highlights the delicate and briny flavor of flying fish roe. To make Tobiko nigiri, you will need the following ingredients: sushi rice, tobiko, soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger. Start by cooking the sushi rice according to the package instructions and let it cool. Then, wet your hands with water and take a small handful of sushi rice. Shape the rice into a small oblong shape, slightly larger than the size of the tobiko. Gently press a small amount of tobiko onto the top of the rice, ensuring it sticks. Repeat this process to make as many Tobiko nigiri as desired. Serve the Tobiko nigiri with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side. Each bite of Tobiko nigiri offers a burst of flavor from the briny tobiko, complemented by the subtle sweetness of the sushi rice. Enjoy this elegant and delicious sushi dish as an appetizer or a part of a sushi platter.
