1

Gather Your Ingredients

Get together all the necessary ingredients for your sushi rolls. You'll need sushi rice, nori (seaweed sheets), your choice of fillings (like fresh fish, avocado, cucumber, or tempura shrimp), soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger. Be creative and mix it up!

2

Prepare the Sushi Rice

Rinse 2 cups of sushi rice until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions and let it cool to room temperature. Season the rice with a mixture of rice vinegar, sugar, and salt for that perfect sushi flavor.

3

Layout the Sushi Mat

Place a bamboo sushi mat on a clean surface and cover it with a sheet of plastic wrap. This will prevent the rice from sticking to the mat and make rolling easier.

4

Lay the Nori Sheet

Place a sheet of nori on top of the prepared sushi mat. Make sure the shiny side is facing down, and the rough side is facing up. Wet your hands with water to prevent the rice from sticking to them.

5

Spread the Rice

Take a handful of sushi rice and gently spread it evenly over the nori, leaving about a 1-inch border at the top. Wet your fingers as needed to prevent the rice from sticking to them.

6

Add Fillings and Roll

Place your desired fillings, such as slices of fresh fish or vegetables, in a line across the center of the rice. Now, it's time to roll! Lift the edge of the sushi mat closest to you and start rolling away from you, using gentle pressure to create a tight and even roll. Continue rolling until the nori is fully wrapped around the fillings.

7

Slice and Arrange

Using a sharp knife, carefully slice your sushi roll into bite-sized pieces. Repeat the rolling and slicing process with the remaining rice, nori, and fillings. Now it's time to get creative and arrange your sushi rolls on your beautiful Sashimi Platter!
