Temaki with Crab Recipe

Prepare the Sushi Rice

Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a bowl until dissolved, then gently fold into the warm rice. Allow to cool.

Prepare the Fillings

While the rice cools, prepare the fillings. Julienne the cucumber and slice the avocado. Set aside.

Assemble the Temaki

Take a nori sheet and cut it in half. Place a small amount of sushi rice on one end of the nori, then layer on the crab meat, cucumber, and avocado. Roll the nori away from you, tucking the filling in tightly to form a cone shape.

Serve

Sprinkle sesame seeds on top, serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
