How to fold an origami sushi

Three rounds glued in a stack: dark seaweed, white rice a little smaller, and a small pink salmon filling in the middle. Corners fold behind to round each one.

You need: 1 square sheet, black or dark green, 1 a little smaller with a white side, 1 small pink square (half as wide), and glue. Easy, 8 steps, about 6 minutes.

Steps

  1. Seaweed: corners behind. Start with the dark square for the seaweed. Fold the four corners behind, to make an eight-sided shape.
  2. Seaweed: round it. Fold all eight new corners behind, just a little, so it's nice and round.
  3. Rice: new sheet. Set the seaweed aside. Take the slightly smaller square, white side up. That's the rice.
  4. Rice: corners behind. Fold the four corners behind, just like the seaweed.
  5. Rice: round it. Fold the eight new corners behind, just a little.
  6. Filling: new sheet. Set the rice aside. Take the small pink square, pink side up.
  7. Filling: corners behind. Fold the four corners behind, to make a small eight-sided filling.
  8. Stack the roll. Glue the rice in the middle of the seaweed, then the filling in the middle of the rice.

Itadakimasu!

Draw a few rice grains on the white ring. Make a plate of rolls with orange, green or yellow fillings.
