Method
Prepare Sushi Rice
- 1
Rinse the Rice
Place the sushi rice in a fine-mesh strainer and rinse under cold running water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch.
- 2
Cook the Rice
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 2.5 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes.
- 3
Season the Rice
In a small bowl, mix together the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved. Transfer the cooked rice to a large bowl, drizzle the vinegar mixture over the rice, and gently fold it in using a wooden spatula. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.
