Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Rinse and drain rice. Place rice, water and salt in a heavy pan with tight fitting lid, cover and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down to simmer (low) and cook for 50 minutes. After 50 minutes, remove from heat and let sit, covered, for 5 to 10 more minutes. Allow to cool. Mix cooled rice with brown rice vinegar.
  2. In large pot with steamer basket, steam carrots and asparagus together for approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
  3. Dampen sushi mat by running cool water over it. Place 1 nori sheet, shiny side down, on the mat. Spread 1 cup rice evenly over nori, leaving about 1 inch of the nori uncovered at the top and bottom. About 1 inch from the bottom of the rice closest to you, lay 1/4 of the sushi filling (carrot, asparagus, avocado and almond butter) lengthwise across the rice. Roll sushi tightly with firm pressure, tucking in the filling as you roll into a cylinder. If your roll does not stick together, dip your fingers in water and wet the nori seam. Moisten a knife blade and slice into eight pieces.
  4. Bring shoyu to a boil in small pot and reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes. Pour into a small serving bowl and garnish with sesame seeds. Serve alongside sushi for dipping.
