Description

Sushi is a traditional Japanese dish that has gained immense popularity all over the world. It is made with sushi rice, which is the foundation of the dish. The perfect sushi rice is sticky, slightly sweet and has a distinct vinegar flavor. Making sushi rice at home is easy and requires only a few basic ingredients.

Prep time

10 minutes

Cook Time

20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 cups sushi rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Equipment

  • Rice cooker or pot with a tight-fitting lid
  • Large mixing bowl
  • Wooden spoon

Method

  1. Rinse the sushi rice in cold water until the water runs clear. Let it soak in water for 30 minutes.
  2. Drain the rice and place it in a rice cooker or pot with 2 cups of water.
  3. Bring the rice to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed.
  4. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Cook over low heat until the sugar dissolves, stirring constantly.
  5. When the rice is done, remove it from the heat and let it sit for 10 minutes.
  6. Transfer the rice to a large mixing bowl and add the vinegar mixture. Mix well until the rice is evenly coated.
  7. Cover the bowl with a damp towel and let the rice cool to room temperature.
  8. Once the rice has cooled, it is ready to use for sushi or any other Asian dish.

Notes

It is important to use sushi rice for this recipe as it has a specific starch composition that makes it sticky. Do not substitute with other types of rice. You can use a rice cooker or pot to cook the rice. Make sure the lid is tightly sealed to prevent steam from escaping.
