Method
Preparing the Sushi Rice
- 1
Rinse the Rice
In a fine mesh strainer, rinse 1 cup of sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch.

Cook the Rice
In a rice cooker or a pot, combine the rinsed rice with 1 1/4 cups of water. Cook according to rice cooker instructions or bring to a boil, then cover and simmer on low for 18-20 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes.
- 3
Season the Rice
In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar with 1 teaspoon of sugar until dissolved. Stir this mixture into the cooked rice after fluffing it with a fork. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
