It is necessary
-
- Sushi rice (Japanese
- round grain) 250 g
- Sea salt 1/2 tsp
- Granulated sugar 30 g
- Rice vinegar 70 ml
- Salmon 100 g
- Cucumbers 100 g
- Peeled shrimps 100 g
- Green algae 5 g
Instructions
Step 1
First you need to rinse the rice thoroughly. To do this, pour it into a colander and bring it over the water. Rinse the rice until the water is no longer cloudy. Then soak the rice in cold water for an hour and a half.
Step 2
Cook the rice strictly according to the instructions on the package. If the manufacturer has not indicated a recipe for cooking, then follow the usual rules. Place the rice in cold water and bring it to a boil over low heat. Close the lid and cook over low heat for 12 minutes. When the rice is completely cooked, it will absorb all the water.
Step 3
Make a sushi seasoning. To do this, combine rice vinegar, water, sugar and salt. Add the resulting mixture to hot rice. To start cooking the rolls themselves, wait until the rice has cooled down a little.
Step 4
To prepare the filling, peel the cucumbers and cut them lengthwise into strips, and the fish fillet into cubes.
Step 5
Take a nori sheet and place it on the bamboo mat. With a dampened tablespoon or wet hands, spread a layer of rice about five millimeters thick on the sheet. Then, in any combination, lay out the filling, for example, cucumber with tuna or salmon.
Step 6
Twist the roll with a mat and compact it carefully, giving it a shape. Cut into equal portions and serve with pickled ginger root, wasabi and soy sauce.
