Provided by Mandy

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups sushi rice, rinsed thoroughly
3 cups water
1/2 cup unseasoned rice vinegar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 teaspoons Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Measure the sushi rice into a fine mesh sieve and rinse under cold water for several minutes, tossing and stirring the rice until water runs clear. Do not skip this step as it is important for helping the rice to be sticky.
  • Combine the rinsed rice and the water in the pot of a rice cooker or Instant Pot pressure cooker. Seal lid and cook according to the cooker's rice settings. Let rest 10 minutes before opening lid. If using stovetop- Combine rinsed rice and water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce heat to low, cooking for 20 minutes. Turn off heat and let rest 10 minutes.
  • While rice is cooking, prepare the vinegar. In a small saucepan, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium-low heat until sugar and salt have dissolved, about 1 minute. Set aside.
  • Transfer the rested rice to a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle 2/3 of the vinegar mixture over the rice and gently turn rice until coated. Using a silicone spatula or a rice paddle works well for this. Once rice is coated thoroughly, taste and add more vinegar as desired. Spread rice out in the pan and let cool to room temperature before using to make sushi rolls.
  • Enjoy!

SUSHI RICE



Sushi Rice image

Sushi rice is the heart of sushi and the vinegar should add a tartness to the rice and give a nod to the humble beginnings of sushi before it became what we know it as today. This is a simple, straightforward recipe for basic sushi vinegar and sushi rice. There are countless variations with differing amounts of salt and sugar and other additions which flavor the seasoned vinegar chefs call sushi-su. Different vinegars affect the flavor of the finished sushi and vinegar recipes vary by region. This one contains a multi-purpose version for sushi-su that can be used as a base for pickling brine or salad dressing as well.

Time 1h5m

Yield About 5 cups

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup rice vinegar (4% acidity)
2 tablespoons plus 1 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar
Kosher salt
1 gram dashi kombu (about a 1-inch square), optional
1 3/4 cups uncooked white short-grain or medium-grain rice

Steps:

  • For the seasoned vinegar: Heat the vinegar in a small saucepan over medium-low heat until just steaming (it will be about 100 degrees F). Do not boil the vinegar. Remove from the heat.
  • Add the sugar and 2 teaspoons salt and whisk until dissolved. Add the dashi kombu if using.
  • For the rice: Rinse the rice in a large bowl under cold running water until the water runs clear, about 5 minutes. While rinsing, gently agitate the rice with your hands to wash off extra starch. Drain the rice in a fine-mesh colander.
  • If using a rice cooker, set to the "white rice" or "sushi rice" setting; do not use the "quick cook" setting. Add the rinsed and drained rice and 1 1/3 cups of water to the cooker, gently move from side to side to evenly settle the rice and press start. If using the stove method: Add the rinsed and drained rice and 1 1/3 cups of water to a medium pot. Gently move the pot from side to side to evenly settle the rice. Put a piece of aluminum foil over the top of the pot before placing the lid on to create a tight seal. Bring to a boil over high heat (it is best to lower the heat just before it boils, when it begins to steam).
  • Lower the heat to low and steam the rice for 25 minutes; do not open the lid. Remove the rice from the heat and let sit covered for 10 minutes more.
  • Removed the dashi kombu from the seasoned vinegar if using. Transfer the cooked rice to a large bowl and immediately sprinkle the vinegar mixture evenly over the hot rice (see Cook's Note). Using a rice paddle or spatula, gently cut the vinegar mixture into the rice and alternately fold the rice so vinegar doesn't pool on the bottom of the bowl. Make sure the vinegar is evenly distributed throughout the rice.
  • Spread the rice in a baking dish and let sit until it is cool enough to handle and sticks together in a ball, 5 to 10 minutes. Use the rice within 2 hours or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 1 day. You can use the rice at room temperature or gently reheat it using the "warm" function on a rice cooker.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups Japanese rice
3 1/4 cups water
1/3 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup sake-mash vinegar, or white-wine vinegar , optional
3 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.

  • Drain the rice in a colander and set aside for 30 minutes.
  • Place the rice in a rice cooker and add the water. Let the rice soak in the water for at least 30 minutes.
  • Start the cooker and set it according to your cooker's instructions. When the rice is cooked, let it steam for about 15 minutes.

SUSHI RICE



Sushi Rice image

Back in 2002, Matt and Ted Lee reported on how home cooks had started making sushi with ever-increasing frequency. Among the recipes they brought to The Times was this one, for sushi rice, short-grained rice bolstered by the flavors of vinegar sugar and salt, adapted from "The Great Sushi and Sashimi Cookbook," by Kazu Takahashi and Masakazu Hori. Use it is a backdrop for your own home-rolled sushi, or pair it, as the article suggests, with various kinds of sliced fish and vegetables, pickled ginger and wasabi for a chirashi sushi bowl.

SUSHI RICE



Sushi rice image

Make sushi rice to accompany your favourite Japanese-inspired dishes, from bento boxes to sushi and katsu curry. The secret is in the ratio of rice to water

Provided by Lulu Grimes

Categories     Side dish

Time 22m

Yield Makes about 2½ cups, enough for 3 rice bowls, 6 rice balls or 3 rolls

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 cup sushi rice (about 220g)
sushi rice seasoning, to taste (optional)

Steps:

  • The most important thing to get right when cooking sushi rice is the ratio of rice to water. It's better to use a volume measure rather than weighing. Use a cook's 250ml measuring cup if you have one, or a short glass, teacup or small mug. Once you've made one batch, you'll know how much cooked rice that measure makes - it should be about 2½ cups.
  • Measure out 1 cup rice into a saucepan, rinse the rice, swirling it around the pan, then drain off the water. Try not to lose any of the rice. Add 1½ cups water (about 375ml).
  • Bring the rice to a simmer quickly, put on a tight-fitting lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 13 mins - don't take the lid off.
  • Check a couple of grains at the top - the rice should be just about cooked and the water evaporated. If not, continue to cook and check at 2 min intervals, each brand of rice will differ. Turn the heat off and leave the rice to stand with the lid on for 10 mins so all the moisture is absorbed. Add sushi rice seasoning, if you like, and serve.
