Some raw foodists will sprout grains including rice and eat them, but I think a good idea for sushi is to substitute something else for rice. Like grated, seedless cucumber, maybe? That's good with fish and pickled ginger. Or something starchy and mild you can eat raw and shredded: jicama or Jerusalem artichoke maybe. Look at this chef - she uses rutabaga in place of rice for Thai curry: http://www.expertvillage.com/video/16095_noodles-thai-pasta.htm Disclaimer: I cook much of my food, but find the raw food diet interesting and a good challenge for some meals. I like to think that if something is good enough for me to eat, I should be able to eat it raw, even if I choose not to. I don’t think you can soften it enough at room temp.
