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, about 2-3 minutes. This removes excess starch.
- 2
Cook the Rice
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 1.5 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes until water is absorbed.
- 3
Season the Rice
In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and gently fold in the vinegar mixture while fanning the rice to cool it.

Add Scallops
Place 3 seared scallops in a line across the center of the rice.

Roll the Sushi
Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you, applying gentle pressure to keep it tight. Seal the edge with a little water.

Slice and Serve
Using a sharp knife, slice the sushi roll into bite-sized pieces. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
