Method
Preparation Steps
Prepare Sushi Rice
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook according to package instructions, usually in a rice cooker or on the stove. Once cooked, let it cool slightly and mix in rice vinegar and a pinch of salt.
Assemble the Maki
Lay a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands and take a handful of sushi rice, spreading it evenly over the nori, leaving about an inch at the top edge. Place a line of the salmon mixture across the center of the rice.
Roll the Sushi
Using the bamboo mat, carefully roll the sushi away from you while applying gentle pressure. Roll it tightly until the edge of the nori meets the rice. Moisten the edge of the nori with a little water to seal it.
Slice and Serve
Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled maki into bite-sized pieces. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and serve with soy sauce and wasabi on the side.
