Method
Preparing the Rice
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Place the short-grain rice in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch.
- 2
Cook the Rice
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 2.5 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.
- 3
Season the Rice
In a small bowl, mix together the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Once the rice is cooked, pour the vinegar mixture over the rice and fold gently to combine. Let it cool.

Roll the Sushi
Starting from the bottom edge, roll the sushi tightly using the mat to help shape it into a log. Press gently to seal the edge of the nori.
