作り方

手順

1. 1

   Rinse the sushi rice under cold running water until the water runs clear, about 5 minutes.

   約5 分

   調理のヒント： This step is crucial for achieving properly textured sushi rice.

2. 2

   Combine the rinsed rice and water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes.

   約15 分

   調理のヒント： Do not lift the lid during cooking to ensure the rice steams properly.

3. 3

   Remove the saucepan from heat and let it rest, covered, for 10 minutes.

   約10 分

4. 4

   While the rice rests, prepare the sushi vinegar by combining the rice vinegar, granulated sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Stir until the sugar and salt are fully dissolved.

5. 5

   Transfer the cooked rice to a large, shallow non-metallic bowl or a hangiri (wooden sushi rice tub).

6. 6

   Pour the prepared sushi vinegar evenly over the rice. Using a rice paddle or wooden spoon, gently fold and cut through the rice to incorporate the vinegar, being careful not to mash the grains.

   調理のヒント： Fan the rice with a piece of cardboard or fan while mixing to help it cool and achieve a glossy texture.

7. 7

   Continue to mix and fan the rice until it has cooled to room temperature, about 10 minutes.

   約10 分

   調理のヒント： Cover the rice with a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out if not using immediately.

8. 8

   Arrange all your prepared fillings (sliced fish, cucumber, avocado, scallions) and the seasoned sushi rice on a large platter or individual plates.

   約5 分

   調理のヒント： Keep raw fish chilled until ready to serve.

9. 9

   Cut the nori sheets in half or into quarters, depending on desired roll size.

   約2 分

   調理のヒント： A crisp nori sheet makes for a better hand roll.

10. 10

    To make a hand roll, take a piece of nori and place a small amount of rice on one corner. Add your desired fillings on top of the rice.

    調理のヒント： Do not overfill the nori, as it will be difficult to roll.

11. 11

    Roll the nori into a cone shape, starting from the corner with the rice and rolling towards the opposite corner.

    調理のヒント： A little water on the edge of the nori can help seal the roll.

12. 12

    Serve immediately with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
