Sushi Rice
Ingredients (serves 4-6):
To Cook in the Rice Cooker:
To Prepare Separately:
Measure rice accurately using the measuring cup that came with your rice cooker. Rinse rice until water clears and place in inner cooking pan.
Add water to the corresponding water level for “SUSHI RICE.” Cook the rice using the “SUSHI” setting.
While the rice cooks, stir the rice vinegar, sugar and salt in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
When rice completes cooking, place the rice into a large, wide, shallow dish. (Avoid using metal since vinegar may react with it.) Pour the vinegar mixture evenly over the rice and mix using a spatula. The vinegar seasoning must be mixed while the rice is hot.
As you are folding in the vinegar mixture, fan the rice briskly with a hand or electric fan. Continue fanning and mixing until the rice has cooled to body temperature and appears glossy.
