Take note
Remember to be cautious while handling sharp knives and hot ingredients. Also, make sure to use fresh and high-quality ingredients to get the best results.

1

Prepare the Sushi Rice

Cook the sushi rice according to the package instructions, then season it with a mixture of rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Let it cool completely before handling.

2

Slice the Sushi Fillings

Gather your favorite sushi fillings such as cucumber, avocado, carrots, and crabsticks. Slice them into thin, long strips for easier rolling.

3

Prepare the Nori Sheet

Place a sheet of nori (seaweed) on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands slightly to prevent sticking, and spread a thin layer of sushi rice evenly over the nori, leaving about an inch at the top empty.

4

Add the Sushi Fillings

Arrange your sliced fillings in a row on top of the sushi rice, leaving some space between each filling to allow for rolling.

5

Roll the Sushi

Starting from the bottom, tightly roll the bamboo sushi mat over the fillings using gentle but firm pressure. Keep rolling until the empty inch of nori at the top is reached.

6

Slice and Arrange

With a sharp knife, slice the sushi roll into bite-sized pieces. Each slice should showcase the colorful fillings inside, creating a beautiful rainbow effect. Arrange the slices on a serving plate.

7

Garnish and Serve

Finish off your masterpiece by garnishing the sushi rolls with sesame seeds or colorful tobiko (flying fish roe). Serve with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger for a complete sushi experience.
