Instructions
Sushi Rice:
- Add water and rice to a large pot on high heat and bring water to a boil.
- Reduce heat to medium low and cover, simmering for 20-22 minutes until rice is soft and liquid is absorbed.
- Carefully remove cooked rice from pot into a large bowl.
- Mix together rice vinegar, sugar, and salt.
- Using a rice paddle or large spoon add in the rice vinegar evenly, cutting it in (do not excessively stir).
- Let cool for 20-30 minutes before using sushi rice.
Shrimp Tempura:
- Set a pot of oil (3 inches deep) on medium high until it reaches 375 degrees.
- Whisk the flour, cornstarch baking powder, kosher salt, and white pepper in a bowl together.
- Dredge the shrimp lightly in the mixture and set aside.
- Add in the club soda and whisk, then dip the shrimp in the batter before carefully frying in the oil for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
Dragon Roll:

- Put the nori sheet rice side down on the rolling mat.
- Add two pieces of shrimp to the roll, unagi (if using) and cucumber sticks.
- Using the roller, roll up the maki roll into a tight log.
