Sushi Rice

Mushroom Filling

Assembly

Method

Prepare Sushi Rice

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    In a rice cooker or pot, combine the rinsed rice and water. Cook according to the rice cooker's instructions, or bring to a boil, then reduce to low heat, cover and simmer for 18-20 minutes until all water is absorbed.

  3. 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. Allow the rice to cool to room temperature.

Prepare Mushroom Filling

  1. 4

    Sauté Mushrooms

    In a skillet, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

  2. 5

    Add Mushrooms

    Add sliced shiitake and button mushrooms to the skillet. Pour in soy sauce and cook until mushrooms are tender and liquid has evaporated, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 6

    Finish with Scallions

    Stir in chopped scallions and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

Assemble Shroom Roll

  1. 7

    Prepare Nori

    Lay a nori sheet shiny side down on a bamboo sushi mat.

  2. 8

    Spread the Rice

    Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking. Take a handful of sushi rice and spread it evenly over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.

  3. 9

    Add Fillings

    In the center of the rice, place a line of sautéed mushrooms, sliced avocado, and julienned cucumber.

  4. 10

    Roll It Up

    Using the bamboo mat, carefully lift the edge of the mat and roll it away from you, applying gentle pressure to form a tight roll. Seal the edge of the nori with a little water.

  5. 11

    Slice the Roll

    Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 6-8 pieces. Wipe the knife with a damp cloth between cuts for clean slices.

Serve

  1. 12

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle the sliced rolls with toasted sesame seeds. Serve with wasabi and soy sauce on the side.
