1
Add sake and mirin to the rice when cooking, and use 1 mm less water than usual.
-
2
Don't cook the rice using the 'sushi rice' setting, just use the regular program.
-
3
Lay the kombu on top of the rice and switch the rice cooker on!
-
4
Put the sushi vinegar ingredients in a small pan and bring to a simmer.
-
5
Turn the heat off immediately.
-
6
Add the boiled sushi vinegar and water to the freshly cooked rice, leave to cool down a bit, then cover with plastic wrap to prevent from drying out.
-
7
Spread a piece of nori seaweed evenly with sushi rice.
-
8
Slightly moisten your hands with water and flatten out the rice.
-
9
Cover with plastic wrap.
-
10
Turn it over, wrap and all, so that the nori side is facing up.
-
11
Draw a thin line in the middle with mayonnaise.
-
12
Top with avocado and crab sticks.
-
13
If you put the avocado on the far side it may get mashed when you roll the sushi, so I think it's easier if you put the crab sticks on the far side and the avocado closer to you.
-
14
Fold the plastic wrap that is sticking out on the side closer to you under the mat to make it easier to roll the sushi.
-
15
Roll the sushi, and cut it with the wrap still on it.
-
16
If you peel off the wrap with moistened hands, you won't get any sticky rice.
-
17
Put the masago on the cut sushi roll pieces to finish.
-
18
If you don't like masago, use ground white sesame seeds instead.
-
19
How to cut an avocado Cut into the avocado lengthwise and you'll hit the pit.
-
20
Slice all the way around the avocado.
-
21
Twist both halves with your hands and it will end up as shown in the photo.
-
22
Cut into the half with the pit lengthwise again, and push out the pit.
-
23
Note: I cut each crab stick in half lengthwise.
-
24
Adjust depending on how thick you want the crab sticks to be.
