Divide the rice evenly among the 8 sheets of nori. Smooth the rice in an even layer onto the nori sheet along the widest edge. Sprinkle the remaining sesame seeds over the top of each sheet.

Divide egg strips, daikon strips, mushrooms, tofu, carrots, spinach evenly between the sheets of nori. Place them like logs on a fire along the length of the nori.
