Wasabi Shrimp Sushi Cups

These wasabi shrimp sushi cups are perfect for you if rolling sushi is not in your wheelhouse. Certainly filling a muffin cup is! Prepare sushi rice according to the package instructions, but do not fluff—the success of this dish depends on very sticky rice. Use a silicone muffin pan, if you have one. While the rice cooks, prepare the filling ingredients.
