Sushi Rice

Nori and Seasoning
Method
Prepare Sushi Rice
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Place the sushi 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-sized pot, combine the rinsed rice and water. Bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for another 10 minutes.
- 3
Season the Rice
In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Transfer the cooked rice to a large bowl and gently fold in the vinegar mixture using a wooden spatula. Allow it to cool to room temperature.

Lay Out Nori
Place a nori sheet, shiny side down, on a bamboo sushi mat or a clean surface.
- 6
Spread the Rice
With wet hands, take a handful of sushi rice and spread it evenly over the nori, leaving about 1 inch at the top edge.
- 7
Add Filling
Arrange a few strips of each vegetable across the center of the rice.
- 8
Roll the Sushi
Start rolling the sushi tightly from the bottom using the mat to help. Roll until you reach the bare edge of the nori, wet it slightly with water to seal, and complete the roll.
- 9
Slice the Roll
Using a sharp, wet knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts to keep it clean.
Serve
- 10
Plating the Sushi
Arrange the sliced maki on a plate. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and serve with soy sauce and wasabi on the side for dipping.
