A vibrant mix of cucumber & radish is dressed in a zesty lemon & sweetener infusion for a refreshing crunch. Toasted sesame seeds add a nutty note, while crispy nori strips elevate the umami-ness. Just add drizzles of wasabi mayo over tender trout ribbons, chopped pickled ginger, and delicately fluffy sushi rice, and you’ve got the best sushi bowl in town.

Place the sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast until they pop, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and set aside.

Slice ¼ of the nori sheet into thin strips. Return the pan to medium heat with the nori strips. Toast until crispy, 1-2 minutes.
