📝 Instructions

11 steps
1

Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well.

2

In a medium saucepan, combine the sushi rice and water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until all the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.

3

While the rice is cooking, combine the rice vinegar, sugar, and salt in a small bowl. Stir until the sugar and salt are completely dissolved.

4

Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl. Pour the vinegar mixture over the rice. Use a wooden spoon to gently fold the rice until it's evenly coated and glossy. Allow it to cool to room temperature.

5

Place a bamboo sushi mat on a clean surface, and cover it with a piece of plastic wrap. Lay a nori sheet, shiny side down, on the plastic wrap.

6

With damp hands, spread a thin layer of sushi rice evenly over the nori, leaving a 1-inch border at the top.

7

Spread a thin strip of wasabi down the center of the rice layer.

8

Spoon a line of tobiko over the wasabi.

9

Lift the mat and carefully roll the sushi away from you, keeping the fillings in place. Roll firmly to ensure the roll holds together.

10

Cut the sushi roll into 8 equal pieces using a sharp, damp knife. Repeat the process with the remaining ingredients.

11

Serve the tobiko sushi with soy sauce and pickled ginger on the side.
