Sushi Rice

Sashimi Toppings

Method

Preparing Sushi Rice

  1. 1

    Rinsing the Rice

    Rinse the sushi rice under cold water in a fine mesh strainer until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch.

  2. 2

    Cooking 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, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the water is absorbed.

  3. 3

    Seasoning the Rice

    In a small bowl, mix together 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 it to cool to room temperature.

Preparing Sashimi

  1. 4

    Slicing the Fish

    Using a sharp knife, slice the fresh salmon and tuna into thin sashimi pieces. Aim for about 1/4 inch thickness.

  2. 5

    Preparing Vegetables

    Thinly slice the avocado and cucumber. Use a mandoline or a sharp knife for even slices.

  3. 6

    Serving

    On a serving platter, arrange the sushi rice, sashimi, avocado, and cucumber. Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
