Bake for 30-40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes with a spatula to help it crisp evenly. The rice should be golden and crispy but not hard. Remove from the oven and let cool.
    2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the tuna (if using), cucumber, carrot, cilantro, scallions, and edamame.
    3. Stir together the mayonnaise, rice vinegar, sriracha, honey, and sea salt until smooth. Pour over the vegetable mixture and toss to coat.
    4. Add the cooled crispy rice to the dressed vegetable mixture and gently toss to combine. Serve immediately for maximum crunch.
