Halloween

Jack O'lantern sushi

Jack O'lantern sushi

Famous Halloween character jack o’lantern face usually curved on pumpkin, I made them with sushi.
I used smoke salmon and nori(seaweed) for pumpkin with face and green beans for stalk.
It’s fun snack or looks good as party food. Rather having too much sweets on this day, I tried something different and it’s tasted as good as it looked.
