Perfect Sushi Rice
Ingredients

    •    2 cups short-grain sushi rice

    •    2 cups water

    •    3 tbsp rice wine vinegar

    •    2 tbsp mirin

    •    ½ tsp salt

Method

1. Rinse

Rinse rice under cold water until the water runs mostly clear. This removes excess starch for the perfect texture.

2. Cook

Combine rice and water.

    •    Rice Cooker: Cook as usual.

    •    Stovetop: Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, cook 15 minutes.

Let sit covered for 10 minutes.

3. Season

Mix rice wine vinegar, mirin, and salt.

Gently fold into hot rice using a slicing motion — never mash.

4. Cool

Fan the rice while folding to create that glossy sushi finish.

Let cool to room temperature before rolling.
