Tools You'll Need:

To make these delicious tuna sushi tacos, you'll want to have our Sushi Taco Holders on hand. These holders are specifically designed to make the assembly and presentation of sushi tacos effortless and visually appealing.

Step-by-Step Guide:

Let's get started with crafting your tantalizing tuna sushi tacos:

  1. Prepare Sushi Rice: Begin by cooking sushi rice following the package instructions. Once cooked, season it with a mixture of rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.

  2. Slice Your Ingredients: Slice your sushi-grade tuna, avocado, cucumber, radishes, and mango into thin strips or bite-sized pieces. These fresh ingredients will form the heart of your tuna sushi tacos.

  3. Assemble the Sushi Tacos: Place a sheet of plastic wrap on your Sushi Taco Holder, then lay a nori sheet on top. Spoon a small amount of seasoned sushi rice onto the nori sheet, spreading it evenly.

  4. Add Fillings: Arrange your sliced tuna, avocado, cucumber, radishes, and mango on top of the rice. Be creative with the combinations to create a symphony of flavors and textures.

  5. Fold and Secure: Gently fold the nori sheet in half, creating a taco shape. Carefully remove the plastic wrap while keeping the taco shape intact.

  6. Garnish: If you desire, garnish your tuna sushi taco with sesame seeds and microgreens for added texture and elegance.
