Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice with 1.25 cups of water in a rice cooker. Cook according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a bowl. In a small saucepan, combine the gluten-free rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves.
Pour the vinegar mixture over the cooked rice and fold with a wooden spoon. Leave the rice to cool to room temperature.
While the rice is cooling, prepare the vegetables and fish. Slice the avocado, cucumber, carrot, and red bell pepper into thin strips.
Slice the fresh salmon and tuna into thin strips as well.
Place a nori sheet, shiny side down, on a bamboo sushi mat. Wet your hands with water to prevent the rice from sticking, and spread a thin layer of rice over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.
Arrange strips of avocado, cucumber, carrot, red bell pepper, salmon, and tuna across the center of the rice.
Lift the edge of the bamboo mat closest to you, and carefully roll it forward, keeping the fillings in place with your fingers. Roll until you reach the border of nori without rice.
Dampen the edge with water to seal the roll.
Repeat steps for the remaining nori sheets and ingredients.
Use a sharp knife to slice each roll into 6-8 pieces.
Serve the rainbow sushi rolls with gluten-free soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger.
