Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Sushi rice
- 1.25 cup Water
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 pound Fresh salmon fillet
- 4 pieces Nori sheets
- 1 large Ripe avocado
- 0.5 piece Cucumber
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Wasabi
- 4 tablespoons Pickled ginger
Instructions
Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then drain well.
Combine the rinsed sushi rice and water in a medium-sized saucepan and let it soak for 30 minutes.
Bring the rice to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit, covered, for 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix rice vinegar, sugar, and salt until dissolved.
Transfer the cooked rice to a large bowl. Gradually add the vinegar mixture, gently folding the rice to mix. Allow it to cool to room temperature.
While the rice cools, slice the fresh salmon fillet into long, thin strips, about 1/2 inch wide.
Peel the avocado, remove the pit, and slice it into thin strips.
Peel the cucumber and cut it into long, thin strips.
Lay a nori sheet shiny side down on a clean surface. Place about 1/4 cup of seasoned rice on one end of the sheet, spreading it out in an even layer.
Arrange a strip of salmon, a few slices of avocado, and a cucumber strip over the rice.
Roll the nori starting from the end with the ingredients, shaping it into a cone. Use a grain of rice to seal the edge.
Repeat the process with the remaining nori sheets and ingredients.
Serve the salmon handrolls immediately with soy sauce, wasabi, and pickled ginger on the side.
