How to make it:

• First you have to cook the rice. You probably want to do this about an hour before assembling and eating.

• Wash your rice and then let it soak in water for 25-30 mins. 1 cup rice: 1/2 cup water.

• After soaking, bring rice to a boil, after it’s boiling, reduce to simmer and cover for 20 mins. After 20 mins turn heat off and let steam in covered pot for 10 mins.

• After it’s done cooking, pour in half a cap full of rice vinegar and a pinch of salt and sugar into the rice and mix. Let the rice sit out in a container for ab 15 mins to cool to warm, not hot, not cool.

• While the rice is cooling, slice/prep your ingredients into skinny slices.

• Wrap your bamboo roller in plastic wrap, all the way around.

• Lay your nori rough side up on the bottom of the bamboo roller.

• Wet your hands and spread the rice on the nori creating a thin layer of rice.

• Sprinkle your sesame seeds.

• Carefully lift nori sheet with rice and flip it rice side down on the roller.

• Line bottom of nori with ingredients .

• Begin rolling the rice up with the roller tightly, rolling back the saran wrap and bamboo each time so it doesn’t get rolled up in your roll.

• Once it is all rolled up, we wrap the top of it with saran wrap.

• Then wet a large sharp knife with cool water, slice your rolls, wetting the knife each time.

• Take plastic wrap off and then, hopefully, you have sushi.
