Sushi Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare Sushi Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to the package instructions. Once cooked, transfer to a bowl and let it cool slightly.

  2. 2

    Season Rice

    In a small bowl, mix the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Gently fold this mixture into the warm rice. Allow it to cool to room temperature.

  3. 3

    Form Nigiri

    Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking. Take a small amount of sushi rice (about 2 tablespoons) and mold it into an oval shape. Top each rice ball with a slice of tuna, salmon, snapper, yellowtail, or shrimp.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Arrange the nigiri on a serving plate. Serve with wasabi and soy sauce on the side. Optionally, serve with nori sheets for wrapping.
