Rinse the sushi rice and add it to a pot with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 15-20 minutes until all the water is absorbed.
Remove from heat and season the rice with rice vinegar, salt, and sugar. Stir to combine and set aside.
Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper.
Combine soy sauce, honey, and crushed garlic in a bowl and rub the mixture over the salmon.
Bake the salmon at 375°F for 15-18 minutes until cooked through.
Flake the cooked salmon with a fork, removing the skin, and add it to a bowl with scallions, cream cheese, and spicy mayo. Mix until evenly combined.
Change the oven temperature to 400°F.
Spread the seasoned rice evenly into a baking dish and sprinkle furikake seasoning over the top.
Layer the salmon mixture over the rice and flatten it to cover the surface.
Top the salmon layer with more furikake, then drizzle eel sauce and spicy mayo over it.
Bake the dish for 10 minutes, then broil for 2-3 minutes until the top is slightly browned and bubbling.
Once done, garnish with more furikake, sesame seeds, sauces, and chopped scallions.
