Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 1 cup Wild Oregon Bay Shrimp Look for high-quality shrimp for the best seafood flavor.
  • 1 tablespoon Kewpie Mayo Preferred for creaminess and umami; substitute with regular mayo if necessary.
  • 1 teaspoon Sriracha Adjust the heat to your taste; for less spice, use a milder sauce.
  • 1 teaspoon Toasted Sesame Oil Offers a nutty richness; regular sesame oil can work in a pinch.
  • 2 tablespoons Green Onions (Diced) Adds freshness; chives can be an excellent alternative.
For the Cucumber "Boats"
  • 2 large Cucumbers Choose firm cucumbers to create sturdy boats that hold the filling well.
For Toppings
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha Mayo Can be homemade by mixing kewpie mayo and sriracha.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Wash your large cucumbers thoroughly. Slice them in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds to create cucumber boats.

  5. Serve your Shrimp Sushi Cucumber Boats chilled. Enjoy immediately or store in the refrigerator for a short while.
