It is necessary
-
- rice - 2 tbsp;
- salmon fillet - 200 g;
- Japanese vinegar
- wasabi.
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare sushi rice. Take rice (you don't have to take special Japanese rice). Rinse it thoroughly. Drain the water. Do this a few more times until the rice water is clear. This will mean that you have washed the rice from the husks and dust.
Step 2
Dip the rice into a saucepan and cover with cold water. There should be the same amount of water as rice, for example, for 2 cups of rice - 2 cups of water. Place on high heat and bring to a boil. Next, reduce the heat and leave the rice to simmer until the water is completely boiled away. Remove the pan from the heat and let it brew for 15 minutes.
Step 3
I need to make a dressing for the rice. Take Japanese vinegar, add some sugar to it. For 2 cups of rice - 50 ml of vinegar. Pour over the rice and mix thoroughly. To soak the rice completely, you can spread it out on several plates and then pour over the rice dressing.
Step 4
While the rice is cooling, slice the fish. Prepare salmon fillets. Use the bevel slicing technique. Take a very sharp knife and cut the fish in one arcuate motion towards you. Under no circumstances should you cut the fish. If the fish is not very dense, then cut the piles thicker.
Step 5
Pour into a cup of water and add some vinegar. Mix thoroughly. Soak your hands in the vinegar water to keep the rice from sticking. Take some rice in one hand, squeeze it lightly, giving it an oval shape. Take a piece of fish in your other hand.
Without putting away the rice and fish, take some wasabi with your index finger and brush over a piece of your fish. Next, put the rice. Use your thumb to lightly press down on the top of the rice, leaving an almost imperceptible dent. Now change hands and press down on the entire surface of the rice, giving it the correct shape. The nigiri sushi is ready. Bon Appetit.
