Culinary Сontest | Кулінарний конкурс | Sushi

Hello Stimians! Today I want to show you my experience of making sushi at home. Turns out it can be a fun and satisfying culinary experience. Here is a simple recipe that you can try if you want to try your hand at making this delicacy

Here are the ingredients you will need:

2 cups sushi rice (rice designed specifically for sushi)
2 cups of water
3 tablespoons of rice vinegar
1 tablespoon of sugar
1/2 teaspoon of salt
Nori (seaweed sheets)
1 cup salmon, smoked or cooked, thinly sliced
1 avocado, thinly sliced
1 cucumber, thinly sliced
1/2 angelica root, grated
Wasabi and soy sauce for serving

The preparation method is as follows: Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps to remove excess starch. Pour 2 cups of water and the sushi rice into a pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot and simmer for about 15 minutes. While the rice is cooking, prepare the rice vinegar mixture. In a small saucepan, combine 3 tablespoons of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Heat the mixture over low heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. Cool slightly. Once the rice is ready, transfer it to a large bowl and let it cool slightly. After it cools a bit, carefully pour the rice vinegar mixture over the rice and stir with a wooden spoon until well combined. Try not to squash the rice. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth and let the rice cool completely. Prepare your ingredients for the rolls. Cut the fish, avocado, cucumber and angelica roots so that they are roughly the same size.

When the sushi rice has cooled completely, place a nori sheet on a bamboo sushi mat (or plate), shiny side out. Spread a layer of rice evenly over the sheet, leaving about 1 inch at the top free. Place a few pieces of fish, avocado, cucumber and root vegetables diagonally across the center of the rice layer. Using the sushi mat as an aid, roll into a tight roll, starting at the end with the rice. Press lightly as you roll to make sure everything is tightly packed.Cut the finished roll into bite-sized pieces using a wet knife. Serve with wasabi and soy sauce (optional).

Enjoy your homemade sushi! Remember, practice makes perfect, so don't get discouraged if your first few attempts don't look like professionally made rolls. You will improve your skills over time.
Bon appetit!
