  • Rinse rice and drain. Add rice to a pot and pour in water. Bring to a simmer over high heat, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook for 20 minutes. Turn off heat and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • While rice cooks, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt together in a small bowl until dissolved. Set aside.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a shallow 2-quart baking dish with some sesame oil.
  • Uncover rice and drizzle over seasoned vinegar mixture. Use a fork to break up and fluff rice. Transfer rice into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle over toasted sesame seeds, bonito flakes, and nori; use a fork to gently stir into the rice.
  • Mix mayonnaise, soy sauce, ½ teaspoon sesame oil, and Sriracha for topping together in a bowl and stir in scallops and shrimp. Spread over rice, and sprinkle cayenne over the top.
