Sushi Rice

Sushi rice takes more than just boiling the rice. To make it taste like real sushi it requires a liquid mixture to be added to it. We like to use the Progressive Microwave Rice cooker, to actually cook the rice.

Ingredients
4 cups cooked sushi rice
1/3 cup rice vinegar
2 Tbps. sugar
2 tsp. salt

Directions
1. Rinse rice in mesh strainer until water runs clean.

2. Cook rice according to package or in a rice cooker. If using a microwave rice cooker, let rice sit for 5 minutes after it finishes cooking.

3. In a small sauce pan mix vinegar, sugar, and salt together on low/medium heat until sugar is completely dissolved. Let vinegar mixture cool.

4. Add vinegar mixture to rice.

5. Stir thoroughly and refrigerate.

Wait until rice is fully cooled to make sushi, if it is too warm it will dissolve the nori.
