Instructions
- To cook the rice: Place the rice in a mesh sieve and rinse rice until the water runs clear. Place rice in rice cooker with water and oil. Stir.
- When the rice is cooked transfer to a large bowl and let it stand for about 10 minutes.
- In a small bowl mix together rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Add to the rice a little bit at a time while turning with a wooden spoon.
- Cover with a damp cloth and allow it to sit for about 30-45 minutes. You will end up with about 2 cups of cooked rice.
- To roll the sushi: Place a piece of nori sheet on top of the bamboo mat. Put the sticky rice on top of the nori flattening down with a wooden spoon. The rice should go up about two thirds up the nori sheet.
- Place fillings adjacent to each other.
- Take the edge of the bamboo mat nearest you and curl over the nori, keeping the filling in place.
- Seal with water.
- To cut evenly: First slice the finished roll in half. Place both halves next to each other and cut into thirds.*
- * dip knife in water in order to make slicing easier.
