• no soy sauce; use coconut aminos or passover approved dipping sauce
• All ingredients are non -gebrokts (gluten-free and matzah- free), if needed
• All items are available with a Kosher for Passover hechsher

• Another tip for the best kosher sushi rolls for Passover:
1. Use a Damp Towel for Rolling
• Use a damp towel underneath the rolling mat to keep your cauliflower rice and nori flexible and sticky. It 'll prevent tears and ensure that the roll stays tight.
2. Double-Wrap if Needed
• Sometimes cauliflower rice won't hold up as well as real sushi rice. Use another sheet of nori if the first feels too fragile.
3. Chill Before Slicing
• Place your sushi in plastic wrap and refrigerate it for 20-30 minutes to stiffen the roll and get nice clean slices! Just like at a sushi restaurant!
4. Use Gloves or Wet Hands
It can stick to your fingers if you don't wet your hands before spreading the cauliflower rice on the nori, wear gloves to make it easier and cleaner.
5. Try Avocado as a Binder
• Mash a little bit of avocado into the cauliflower rice if you want a little extra creaminess and it stick better—plus it 's completely kosher for Passover.
6. Create a Passover Sushi Bar
• Make sushi rolling a family fun activity during Seder week by laying out different fillings and everyone rolling their own sushi. It 's interactive, customizable and a great way to get kids involved in the kitchen.
7. Add Horseradish for a Seder Twist
• If you're willing to maintain some symbolic flavor, sprinkle a little prepared horseradish (maror ) on top of your roll for a bit of spice in a modern way.
8. Quinoa Option (If You Eat Kitniyot)
• If you 're following Sephardic customs or allowing kitniyot during Passover, then quinoa is a great rice substitute. Cook it until it 's fluffy then chill then use like regular sushi rice.
9. Use Matzo Meal (Optional Binder)
• There 's been a tendency to add just a little bit of matzo meal to the cauliflower rice to help bind it better — just be careful if you 're keeping non - gebrokts.
10. Pair with KFP Sparkling Drinks
• You can also eat your sushi with sparkling grape juice or Certified soda for a drink that tastes refreshing. It 'll elevate the whole meal and make it feel really special.
🕯 Bonus: Make it for a Yom Tov Lunch
• Because it is cold and easy to make ahead of time this recipe makes an excellent Yom Tov lunch or Chol Hamoed get-together - just bring it along in a cooler and go!
