Substituting Brown Rice In A Sushi Recipe

If you have a sushi recipe and you’re thinking about substituting brown rice for the usual sushi rice, it’s important to consider whether the brown rice’s natural nutty flavor is going to blend well with the rest of the sushi recipe.

Brown rice is typically a little healthier for you than the standard sushi rice - but it is also not as sticky, which is important when trying to get that piece of sushi from your plate to your mouth using a pair of chopsticks.

There are places that serve sushi rolls with vegetables and brown rice - and Whole Foods even has a sushi recipe for rolls and brown rice, but it isn’t too common to see a standard sushi recipe containing a slice of your favorite fish on top of brown rice.
