Preparation

Preparation Steps

1. Prepare the Sushi Rice

Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once cooked, let it sit for 10 minutes.

2. Season the Rice

In a small saucepan, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Heat gently until sugar dissolves. Transfer the cooked rice to a large bowl, and gently fold in the vinegar mixture. Allow rice to cool to room temperature.

3. Prepare the California Roll Filling

Slice the avocado and cucumber into thin strips. In a bowl, mix the crab meat with a bit of mayonnaise (optional) for flavor.

4. Roll the California Roll

Place a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands and take a handful of sushi rice, spreading it evenly over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Place the crab meat, avocado, and cucumber in a line across the center of the rice. Using the mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, applying gentle pressure to form a tight roll. Seal the edge with a bit of water.

5. Slice the Roll

Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Repeat with remaining nori sheets.

6. Prepare the Nigiri

With wet hands, shape small balls of sushi rice and top each with a slice of fresh fish. Optionally, you can use a small amount of wasabi between the rice and fish.

7. Serve

Arrange the nigiri and California rolls on a platter. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side. Accompany with miso soup and a side salad for a complete meal.
