Equipment

Preparation

Prepare Sushi Rice

1. Cook 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.

2. Season the Rice

Once cooked, transfer the rice to a large bowl. Mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl until dissolved, then gently fold this mixture into the warm rice. Allow to cool.

3. Assemble the Roll

Place a nori sheet on a sushi mat. Wet your hands and spread a thin layer of sushi rice over the nori, leaving a small border at the top. Arrange slices of avocado and cucumber in the center, then add a layer of the fresh fish. Roll tightly using the mat.

4. Cut the Roll

Using a sharp knife, cut the roll into 6-8 pieces. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

5. Aburi (Torching)

Using a blow torch, briefly sear the top of the assembled sushi rolls and nigiri pieces for a few seconds until they show a slight char.

Serve

6. Plating

Arrange the Aburi Oshi, rolls, and nigiri on a serving plate. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
