Cook the Sushi Rice

Season the Rice
Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl. Mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt together in a small bowl until dissolved, then gently fold it into the warm rice. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.

Roll the Sushi
Place a bamboo sushi mat on a flat surface. Lay a nori sheet shiny side down on the mat. Wet your hands to prevent sticking, then take a handful of sushi rice and spread it evenly over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top. Arrange slices of salmon, avocado, and cucumber along the center of the rice. Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, pressing gently to shape it. Seal the edge of the nori with a little water.

Slice the Sushi
Using a sharp knife, slice the sushi roll into 6-8 pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts to ensure clean edges.
