# Expert Tips:
01 -
- The crispy flatbread base gives you all the satisfaction of pizza with that beloved sushi bake creaminess in every single bite
- Its the kind of dish that makes people lean in and ask what exactly theyre eating, then immediately ask for seconds
02 -
- The sushi rice needs to be completely cooled before mixing it in, or it will make the salmon mixture gummy and hard to spread
- Do not skip the parchment paper because the sugar from the marinade will caramelize and stick to the pan
03 -
- Furikake sprinkled over the cheese before baking adds an incredible umami punch that makes it taste even more restaurant-quality
- Let the baked flatbreads rest for 2 minutes before adding the cold toppings so everything sets up slightly and slices cleaner
