Sushi Rice
Roll Ingredients
Method
Prepare Sushi Rice
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Place the sushi rice in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse it under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
- 2
Cook the Rice
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed sushi rice and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the water is absorbed.
- 3
Season the Rice
Once cooked, remove the rice from heat and let it sit, covered, for 10 minutes. In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Fluff the rice with a fork and gently mix in the vinegar mixture. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
Assemble the Rolls
- 4
Prepare Fillings
Slice the fresh salmon fillet into thin strips and the avocado into thin slices.
- 5
Prepare Nori Sheet
Lay a bamboo sushi mat on a clean surface and place one nori sheet shiny side down on the mat.
- 6
Spread the Rice
Wet your hands to prevent sticking, then take a handful of sushi rice and spread it evenly over the nori, leaving about 1 inch of the top edge clear.
- 7
Place Fillings
Arrange a few slices of salmon and avocado in a line across the center of the rice.
- 8
Roll the Sushi
Using the bamboo mat, carefully lift the edge of the mat closest to you and start rolling it over the fillings. Press gently but firmly to shape the roll. Continue rolling until the nori is sealed, using a little water on the edge to help it stick.
- 9
Cut the Roll
Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces, wiping the knife with a damp cloth between cuts to prevent sticking.
