How to make traditional assorted sushi step by step
- Cook the sushi rice. To do this, you have to clean it to remove the starch, cook it, add rice vinegar, and let it cool.
- Make salmon nigiris. Wet your hands with a mixture of water and rice vinegar; Take a portion of rice and compact it by pressing with your fingers on the palm until it forms a croquette. Make 4 and cover each with a slice of smoked salmon.
- Make avocado makis. On a mat, place a sheet of seaweed; Spread a thin layer of rice over less than half of the seaweed and top with avocado sticks. Roll the seaweed with the help of the mat and squeeze, to compact the roll, and cut into portions.
- Make Uramakis (or inverted makis). Cover the mat with plastic wrap and spread a layer of rice; Cover with a seaweed leaf, spread it with the cheese and fill with salmon and avocado. With the help of the mat and the film, make the roll. Cut it up and sprinkle it with the sesame. Serve all sushi with soy sauce and wasabi.
Clara trick
Choose the seaweed well
It is important to choose a quality one (better Japanese) so that when you eat it, it is not gummy but crunchy.
