  • 2 cups cooked white rice leftover or day-old works best
  • 12 oz cooked salmon leftover or freshly cooked

Notes

Day-old rice works best as it's drier and absorbs the seasonings better. The parchment paper creates steam that helps meld all the flavors together. Feel free to customize with your favorite toppings like cucumber, edamame, or sesame seeds.
