Sushi Rice


Ingredients:
2 cup medium grain rice / sushi rice
2-1/1 cup water

Seasoning
3-1/2 tbsp rice wine vinegar
2 tbsp mirin
2 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt

Directions:
  1. Wash the rice until the water runs clear.
  2. In a saucepan, bring rice & water to the boil, then cover with the lid.  Turn the heat down to very low & cook for 20 mins.
  3. After 20 mins, off the heat & set aside for another 10 mins. (Do not open the lid)
  4. Transfer the cooked rice into a large bowl/dish pan & gently add the seasoning.   Add the seasoning a little at a time.
  5. Mix gently into the rice with a wooden spatula using a slicing motion.  (Do not stir/beat the rice, or will get too sticky)
  6. Cover the bowl with a clean damp towel & let it cool for 30-60 mins.
  7. Sushi rice is ready for making sushi.
