Sushi may immediately bring visions of raw fish and slabs of wasabi, but there are other flavors to celebrate beyond the obvious. Tofu seared in sweet teriyaki joins cucumbers and carrots doused in seasoned rice vinegar, as well as avocado and spicy Sriracha mayo. Topped with sesame seeds, this is just the bowl to complete your sushi flavor education.
