Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well.
Combine the rinsed rice and 1.25 cups of water in a rice cooker and cook according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once cooked, let it sit for 10 minutes.
In a small saucepan, combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves. Remove from heat and set aside.
Transfer the cooked rice to a large bowl and gently stir in the vinegar mixture. Allow the rice to cool to body temperature.
Slice the sashimi-grade salmon and tuna into thin, bite-sized pieces.
Peel the cucumber, cut it in half lengthwise, and remove the seeds. Slice thinly.
Halve the avocado, remove the pit, peel, and slice thinly.
If using frozen edamame beans, cook them in boiling water for about 5 minutes, then drain and cool.
Cut the nori sheet into thin strips using kitchen scissors.
Thinly slice the scallions on a diagonal.
Divide the sushi rice between two bowls. Arrange the salmon, tuna, cucumber, avocado, edamame, and pickled ginger on top of the rice.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds, nori strips, and sliced scallions.
Drizzle ponzu sauce over each bowl or serve it on the side.
Serve immediately and enjoy your fresh Sashimi Bowl.
