Instructions
Wash and Prepare Produce
Rinse the pears, grapes, and carrots under cold water. Trim the ends of the pears and carrots, and remove all stems from the grapes.
Time: PT5M
Extract Pear Juice (Cucumber Layer)
Feed the washed pears into the juicer until no more juice is produced. Collect the juice in a large measuring jug.
Time: PT10M
Color Pear Juice
Strain the pear juice through a fine mesh sieve into a saucepan. Add 5 drops of green food coloring and 1 tsp of white dry dye with edible glitter. Stir gently.
Time: PT2M
Prepare Gelatin for Cucumber Layer
Sprinkle 1 tbsp of gelatin powder over ¼ cup cold water, let bloom for 5 minutes, then gently heat in the saucepan until dissolved.
Time: PT5M
Temperature: medium heat
Combine Cucumber Juice and Gelatin
Stir the dissolved gelatin into the colored pear juice, add ½ tsp citric acid and ½ tsp sugar, then mix until fully incorporated.
Time: PT2M
Set Cucumber Jelly
Pour the cucumber gelatin mixture into the shallow sections of the silicone molds (the outer ring). Tap gently to release air bubbles.
Time: PT3M
Extract Grape Juice (Nori Layer)
Juice the prepared grapes in batches until you have about 2 cups of juice. Strain through a fine mesh sieve into a clean saucepan.
Time: PT10M
Color Grape Juice
Add 5 drops of black food coloring to the grape juice and stir until uniformly dark.
Time: PT2M
Prepare Gelatin for Nori Layer
Bloom 1 tbsp gelatin in ¼ cup cold water for 5 minutes, then melt over medium heat.
Time: PT5M
Temperature: medium heat
Combine Nori Juice and Gelatin
Mix the dissolved gelatin into the black grape juice, add ½ tsp citric acid and ½ tsp sugar, and whisk until smooth.
Time: PT2M
Extract Carrot Juice (Salmon Layer)
Juice the peeled carrots using the juicer. Strain the orange juice into a saucepan.
Time: PT10M
Color Carrot Juice
Add 5 drops of orange food coloring to the carrot juice for a richer salmon hue.
Time: PT2M
Prepare Gelatin for Salmon Layer
Bloom 1 tbsp gelatin in ¼ cup cold water, let sit 5 minutes, then melt over medium heat.
Time: PT5M
Temperature: medium heat
Combine Salmon Juice and Gelatin
Stir the melted gelatin into the orange carrot juice, add ½ tsp citric acid and ½ tsp sugar, whisk until fully blended.
Time: PT2M
Prepare Rice Milk Jelly (Rice Layer)
In a saucepan combine 4 cups rice milk, 1 cup birch juice, 2 tbsp sugar, and 1 tsp citric acid. Heat over medium heat, stirring, until sugar dissolves. Sprinkle 2 tbsp gelatin over ¼ cup cold water, bloom 5 minutes, then stir into the hot liquid until fully dissolved.
Time: PT10M
Temperature: medium heat
Set Rice Jelly
Pour the rice milk gelatin mixture into the central compartment of each silicone mold, filling to the desired thickness. Place molds in the refrigerator to set.
Time: PT10M
Lubricate Mold Walls
Using a brush, lightly coat the interior walls of all mold sections (outer ring, inner ring, and central cavity) with vegetable oil.
Time: PT3M
Assemble Layers in Molds
Once the cucumber layer is firm (about 10 minutes), add the nori layer on top, followed by the salmon layer, then the rice jelly layer, and finally a thin white gelatin layer for the “cream cheese” effect. Use a small measuring cup to pour each layer evenly.
Time: PT15M
Final Set
Transfer the fully layered molds to the refrigerator and let them set for at least 2 hours, or until completely firm.
Time: PT2H
Unmold and Trim
Remove the molds from the fridge. Gently release the hot‑glue secured inner rings, then use a sharp knife to make vertical incisions in the salmon layer and a thin slice through the cucumber layer to expose the interior.
Time: PT10M
Create Vein Strips
Spread the thin white gelatin sheet onto a board and cut into 1‑cm wide diagonal strips using a pizza cutter.
Time: PT5M
Finish the Roll
Lay the vein strips diagonally over the salmon layer of each roll, then gently press to adhere. The roll now resembles a realistic Philadelphia sushi roll.
Time: PT15M
Clean Up
Wash all utensils, bowls, and molds with warm soapy water. Dry and store reusable silicone molds for future use.
Time: PT30M
