How to make sushi for noobs

Hey everyone,

today i would like to share a tips on how to make a sushi for beginners, you can try this at home.

What do you need?:

Short-grain white rice or medium grain rice
Sugar
Salt
Seaweed (nori)
Crab stick
Rolling mat
Soy sauce

short grain rice

What to do with the ingredients?

first you have to cook the rice, wash the rice until there is no more starch, then you put the rice in a pot and pour water in it, you cook it like usual rice but you have to add more water in it. However, do not pour so much water in it otherwise it will turn out to be dough instead of rice. (a cup of rice=3 rolls).

after you have cooked the rice, take it out using wooden spoon, use the wooden spoon only. why? because metal spoon will damage the rice. Now you are ready to season the rice with rice vinegar.

wooden spoon

for 3 cups of rice (uncooked) you need 1/2 cup of vinegar rice, 2 tablespoons of sugar and 2 tablespoons of salt. mix the ingredient on medium heat, stir well until there is no solid

then mix it with the rice you have cooked, stir well. If you are unsure with the taste pour the vinegar mix little by little until you get the taste you like. cool down the rice. voila you have made the sushi rice!!

Let's move on for the second step

boiled the crab stick, carrot and avocado for 2-3 minutes, lay the seaweed(nori) at the rolling mat with the rough surface facing upwards. wet your hand and take out about a handful of rice then spread it on the seaweed, spread it evenly. left both of the ended sheet uncovered with  rice (about 2cm).

For the filling

put the the crab stick at the end of seaweed sheet on top of the rice and roll it.
