Instructions
- If using any cooked ingredients (such as 2 tbsp kinshi tamago) cook them now and allow them to cool before assembling the sushi.
- Mix 1 ½ tbsp rice vinegar, ½ tsp sugar and ¾ tsp salt in a small bowl until dissolved.
- Pour the mixture over 480 g cooked Japanese short-grain rice and mix until evenly distributed.
- Cover with a clean damp tea towel while you prepare the other ingredients.
- Thinly slice 15 g Japanese or Persian cucumber and soak in a bowl of lightly salted water. Thinly slice the rest of your fish and vegetables if necessary.
- Divide the sushi rice into 25-30g (approx 2 tbsp) balls and gently roll into a ball with damp hands. Keep them covered to stop them from drying out.
- Break off a piece of plastic wrap and place it on a flat surface. Place the topping of your choice in the center with the side you want to show facing down.
- Place a ball of rice on top.
- Wrap up the edges of the plastic wrap up and twist the excess to tighten and secure the topping to the rice (be careful not to crush the rice though).
- Unwrap and place on a serving plate. Repeat until all the rice and toppings are used up.
- Experiment with different cutting methods and ingredient combinations to create your own unique display.
- Decorate with your choice of toppings and serve with soy sauce and wasabi paste.
- Enjoy!
