Amaebi sushi is a delicious and elegant way to enjoy sweet shrimp. To make this dish, you will need fresh amaebi shrimp, sushi rice, nori seaweed, wasabi, and soy sauce. First, cook the sushi rice according to the package instructions and let it cool. Meanwhile, peel and devein the amaebi shrimp, leaving the tails intact. Next, slice the shrimp in half lengthwise, but not all the way through, so that it opens up like a butterfly. Gently press the shrimp flat. Now, take a small amount of sushi rice and shape it into a small oval. Place the sliced shrimp on top of the rice, and wrap a strip of nori seaweed around it to hold it together. Serve the amaebi sushi with a side of wasabi and soy sauce for dipping. The combination of the sweet shrimp and the tangy soy sauce is simply divine. Enjoy this delicate and flavorful sushi as an appetizer or as part of a sushi platter.
