HOW TO MAKE SUSHI?
Soak the rice in cold water for 15 minutes, then rinse it thoroughly with water 5-6 times to thoroughly remove the starch.
Then, add the rice to the pot and cook with 2.5 cups of water until boiling.
Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes.
After 10 minutes, turn off the heat and let it rest for about 15 minutes without opening the lid.
Heat the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small pot and stir.
Place the cooked rice on a large wooden tray.
Gradually add the vinegar mixture to the rice, using a wooden spoon to aerate the rice without breaking or crushing it.
Cover the rice with a damp cloth and let it rest. Meanwhile, prepare the filling.
Peel the carrots and cucumber.
After removing the seeds from the cucumber, slice both into sticks slightly thicker than a matchstick.
Peel the avocado and slice it half a centimeter thick.
Halve the surimi lengthwise and thinly slice it. Thinly slice the salmon.
Transfer the sesame seeds and black cumin seeds to a tea plate.
Place the seaweed shiny side down on the mat.
Wet your hands, take a handful of rice, and spread it over the seaweed. Leave a two-finger-wide space on one side of the seaweed.
Arrange your desired ingredients in strips in the center of the rice and roll the sushi tightly, seaweed-side down.
Clean and dampen your knife with a wet towel each time as you slice your sushi.
Place the sushi on a flat plate and serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger. Enjoy!
