I used sliced, cooked lotus roots as a shortcut. You can buy ingredients in an Asian grocery store. It is great party food, which looks so pretty on a table. You can add boiled shrimp, sashimi tuna, sashimi salmon, and ikura. I added vegetables only, made vegan chirashi sushi!! Choose your favorite topping, be creative, surprise your company!
