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 to remove excess starch.
- 2
Cook the Rice
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed sushi rice and 2.5 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

Season the Rice
In a small bowl, mix together the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Once the rice is cooked, remove it from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes. Transfer the rice to a large bowl and gently fold in the vinegar mixture. Allow it to cool to room temperature.
