Rinse and Cook Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rinsed rice and water in a rice cooker or saucepan. If using a saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the water is absorbed.

Season the Rice
In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl. Pour the vinegar mixture over the rice and gently fold it in. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
